CMS, Search Not Working

I need some help here. The CMS suddenly stopped working and I have tried what I can to reload/restart things.

I'm running Windows 8.1 and Daz 4,8 and everything was working fine yesterday. Now the CMS does not start automatically and when I start it manually it doesn't work either. Attempts to reload metadata don't work. It appear to be doing something but the metadata does not reload. I have reloaded Studio but no change to my problems.

I get the following error message in my log file (After manually starting CMS):

Creating Asset Manager...
WARNING: dzvalentinaobjectdatabase.cpp(38): DB Register Open error: Cannot establish VC_Connection with remote server.

Anyone have any suggestions on what to try next?

Thanks,

    Did you install PostgreSQL using DIM by any chance? It is much more stable than Valentina/CMS and it is available through DIM for installing.

    It looks like the Valentina db cannot be found, or it is corrupted. Do you use your own Categories, if not, then I would use the Reset Database option from Content DB Maintenance fist, then try to reimport metadata.

    I've installed "PostgreSQL CMS From Valentina CMS Conversion". That is the only thing that I see listed in DIM with PostgreSQL..

    I've tried resetting and re-importing metadata into the database but it does not work. I have massive amounts of content and it looks like it scans a list of content and then a few seconds it is done - but it does not appear to actually download anything.

    It seems like something is messed up in my installs but the standard clean up attempts are not working....

    The PostgreSQL 'CMS From Valentina CMS Conversion', is only of use when transferring content from Valentian/CMS to PostgreSQL. In other words, you need to have the new PostgreSQL installed first for it to do anything.

    If you install it through DIM, it is called 'PostgreSQL CMS (Win 64 bit)' and it gets installed into: C:\Program Files\DAZ 3D\PostgreSQL CMS

    Once you have that installed, you should be able to reset the database and reimport metadata.

    The Postgre SQL file was Not installed. It was in DIM but it was hidden for some really odd reason. I certainly don't remember hiding it...

    I installed it and it looks like that did the trick. I did not have to reinstall Metadata either.

    THANK YOU for your help!!!!!
