Hello all, I was recently installing pg on a virtual machine. I also had pg installed and working on my local machine. On the vm I was having some issues installing a Drupal db so in searching for a solution I found a recommendation of the following: net user postgres /delete and then reinstall pg. I ran this command in what I thought was my newly built virtual machine's dos window but it turned out to be the window for my localmachine which had a fully functioning pg install with several dbs. I was able to get my virtual machine up and running with pg and drupal as I was easily able to reinstall pg. The problem I have is I cannot connect to the postgres sql server database using pgadmin III on my localmachine(the one I accidentally ran net user postgres /delete on). If I open up pgadmin and then in left column I have: database below this I have: PostgreSQL Database Server 8.1(localhost:5432)... If I right click on the above and select connect, I get the following error: Server doesn't listen The server doesn't accept connections: the connection library reports could not connect to server: Connection refused (0x0000274D/10061) Is the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432? Any Ideas? I am new to PG so perhaps it is a simple adduser statement(I hope)? Thanks in advance. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/accidentally-deleted-user---%3E-postgres-tf3161276.html#a8768443 Sent from the PostgreSQL - general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
