I don't want to hear claims about how its not the tuning wizards fault. It is!
And it does more than the postgresql.conf because thats not true.
Just until today I have been able to login and logout, using pgAdmin to my DB.
Now, after considering what you said, I tried once more! And I am getting tired of this whole process.
I installed the tuning wizard. I got myself a new postgresql.conf and it renamed the old one which I noted.
I opened my pgAdmin, logged in, worked fine (I guess the changes require some kind of restart). I restarted my computer and we are back with the old pattern where I cannot login, not with pgAdmin, not with my java-app and not with sql shell :
psql: could not connect to server: Connection refused (0x0000274D/10061)
Is the server running on host "localhost" and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
Press any key to continue . . .
looking at the pgadmin.log i see this :
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
I replaced the new postgresql.conf with the old one. Restarted my computer again. And still the problems are there. Last time I had to uninstall postgre (the time before I reformatted the computer) .. so I would like this to work this time around.
About taking ownership, its not working for me either, (I am trying to delete the data folder that was left from the previous installation) but it refuses to let me delete two folders (base, pg_log) but I guess thats more a windows server issue.
How can I fix it ?
