Hi Rod I did pick up on that but on investigation I found the installer had actually put in the credentials correctly. I also tried manually installing the db which failed so, picking up on a comment from Dave, I'm thinking it's an incompatibility with the latest version of Postgre. I shall reinstall later with a previous version and report back. Thanks for the reply though.

I noticed the start.bat window did indeed close so looked at the manager.log file. It had a mention about the PostGre connection not recognising the 'threads=1' entry so I removed and re-ran.
