didnt find a thread.
while importing (auto and manual) i always get this error since 1 hour:

Fatal Exception during Auto-Import process: Connection Lost to Database: PT3_2008_05_17_051827

this is my default and active database


another problem is, that my postgre service is always terminated when clustering is completed

Sounds very very strange. Export your database (go to database -> database management and select export). After this, blow to safe mode (Booting into safe mode), and then completely remove postgresql. Reboot and install postgresql from this link:

PostgreSQL 8.3.1 install

Then restart PT3 and recreate a database and then import your saved database. Also, if you are in Vista, please follow the information below:

strange. i boot (booted?) safe mode:

- postgresql isnt listed in the program list (it isnt listed when booting normal mode either)
- i cant connect to the internet (although i boot (booted) including network drivers)

PostgreSQL is unable to be installed or run while in Safe Mode. Safe mode is too restrictive for PostgreSQL...
