I had the same problem as OP. With Windows 7 x64 & postgresql Version 8.3.7-1 It seems like running tuning wizard changes the permissions of the postgres.conf file so that the .postgres account is not able to read it. Similar to OP's situation, postgres was working fine until ran the tuning wizard at which point the server wouldn't start (after rebooting) EntrepriseDB should definitly look into this because it's quite difficult for non-experts like myself to debug. Error message i get in event viewer: FATAL: could not open configuration file "C:/Program Files (x86)/PostgreSQL/8.3/data/postgresql.conf": Permission denied This problem was solved (after quite a few hours of research, and a few trials and errors) by changing the owner of the data folder of postgres to the postgres account. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/PGS-Tuning-Wizard-destroys-my-login-tp22947007p23713659.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - general mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
