another user struggling to get PostgreSQL to connect to Daz

I've emailed support about fixing my PostgreSQL configuration with Daz, but after uninstalling, restarting, and re-installing the error still persists.

Even if I go into the Preferences menu, CMS tab, and set the directory and the port number to the default (17237), click 'Apply' and then restart, the changes don't save.

I'm on Mac OS Mojave, Daz 4.10

Can someone tell me what my cmscfg.json file should look like?

Mine is:

{

"PgBin": "/Applications/DAZ 3D/PostgreSQL CMS/bin"

}

Shouldn't there be a \ between the spaces?  Should I specify the port here as well?

thanks

    I have had this problem for a couple of years and I have tried everything you have. Still no solution. On the other hand, I am not aware of any problems this PostgreSQL issue might cause. To me it seems just like an erroneous error message.

    Do you experience any problems, apart from the (possibly false) error message?

    I'm using Windows, so I'm not certain what the equivalent folder paths would be on a Mac. However, for what it is worth, DAZ Studio is installed on my boot drive (That is C:\ drive by default in windowspeak) along with the operating system. There are two cmscfg.json files in separate locations on my drive, one under  C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\DAZ 3D\cms;

    and another under C:\ProgramData\DAZ 3D\CMS.

    They are not the same. The first one reads:

    {
     "Port" : 17237,
     "DatabaseClusterPath" : "C:/Users/username/AppData/Roaming/DAZ 3D/cms"
    }

    and the second one reads:

    {
     "PgBin" : "C:/Program Files/DAZ 3D/PostgreSQL CMS/bin"
    }

    I don't know whether that might be useful to you or not. Obviously, the paths would be different on the Mac, but I would guess that those two files must also be located somewhere on your PC.
