![]() ![]() Symptoms of a nonfunctional database include: tried reimporting metadata, but that didn’t work, since Postgres won’t start. However, if the database isn't running, then Transfer Utility won't function, and I cared a lot about that. I very rarely use Smart Content, so I didn't care on that front. To recap: I got a new Windows 7 Pro computer, moved all the PostgreSQL CMS files from the old Appdata directory to the new one, relocated the content, reinstalled Studio, let it reinstall Valentina then stopped it immediately from the Services Manager, downloaded and installed PostgreSQL from the product library. I went into this in the DAZ forum, but I thought I'd put it out here as well, since the search function in the forum is kind of. (Sorry, Mac people, ain't got no clue about Mac paths, although the general principle should be the same.) After poking at this issue off and on for two days, I am not feeling particularly charitable. A more charitably inclined title would probably be "How to change directory paths after migrating DAZ Studio database content to a new Windows computer: a cautionary tale in four acts".
