"Installed Failed" on re-install of DAZ Studio

CO3DR

I read the thread Need Help Moving Content Folders too late. I wanted to move mine too, but ended up hitting "Uninstall" for absolutely every package installed.

Now, I cannot get any of the SOFTWARE to install. DAZ Studio 4.8, Carrara 8.5 Pro, GoZ for DAZ Studio 4.8+, PostgreSQL CMS, Scene Builder for DAZ Studio. I don't seem to have a problem installing CONTENT.

When I look at the log file, I receive this warning:

+++

WARNING: dzvalentinaobjectdatabase.cpp(38): DB Register Open error: Cannot establish VC_Connection with remote server.
Make sure the server address and port number are correct.
WARNING: dzvalentinaobjectdatabase.cpp(38): DB Register Open error: Cannot establish VC_Connection with remote server.

Error connecting to CMS

But then the rest of the log is inscrutable:​

How can I re-install these?

 

If that's not possible, I've got all the downloads saved. How do I do a really clean DOOVER of the entire DAZ Studio experience (post-download)?

Well - there is one more log to look at. Fire up DIM and click on the gear icon. Then go down to the 'show log' button; hold town the ctrl key and click on it to show the DIM background helper log. Scroll to the bottom to see if there are any useable errors or warnings.

Here is an earlier thread on the subject, I hope it may be of help:

In DS goto Content DB Manager and do Reimport Metadata, that will most probably solve it.
You can do it other ways but that will be more difficult.

To access the Content Database Maintenance, you have to press this small tab first:

 

 

If you plan to uninstall and reinstall the software you will need to reset the database first, since just a mere uninstall will not be sufficient. But before going to that step, try the Re-Import Metadata option and consult those who are more knowledgeable than myself - I've had trouble with it myself.

Be cautious with the Content Database Maintenance options.

Best is to do a few searches on the site to find more experienced and detailed advice.
