I just downloaded this software and am trying to setup my database with telescope and I get all the info into it and where it asks for password I make one up and a window comes up and says:
what do I do?
You are using a PostgreSQL database?
You need to enter the password you set when installing PostgreSQL and you configured Pokertracker with.
You can retrieve this password from the registry under the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Ptrack/PSQL_SETTINGS
This is where PokerTracker saves this settings in plain text.
I can get down to Ptrack. There is no PSQL_SETTINGS in Ptrack folder. Any other ideas?
Unfortunately i do not know any other way to retrieve the PostgreSQL password, you set during the installation of PostgreSQL.
I can get down to Ptrack. There is no PSQL_SETTINGS in Ptrack folder. Any other ideas?
Default host is 'localhost', default port is '5432' and default username is usually 'postgres'. Now all you need to do is remember the password you used. Hopefully, you didn't answer 'yes' in the setup part where it says, 'the password you chose is not secure, would you like to have one automatically generated?'. If you did this, you're screwed. If not, it shouldn't be too hard to remember what password you may have used. Good luck!
