Ok. New computer with windows 10, only, the default installed version of browser does not let me read DAZ forums, a tip I learned last year. Got the Edge Beta, phew i can read the forums.
I used the latest DIM. I downloaded and installed Jenni 8, got the michellin man figure. Ok down/instal the Genesis 8 Essentials Female, ok that had the dsf files. But only appeared in the Content Library panel. So, good, installed.
But I got the PostgreSQL error. So, Where is my Smart Content? So I search through the forum posts, not finding a simple answer. I don't do programming or file manipulation, haven't the slightest idea what any post meant.
I found the simple answer by myself. Since the error said it couldn't find the file as the first possiblity in the error message...could it be that it doesn't download and install with this version of DAZ Studio? I searched for PostgreSQL in my open DIM, and Presto! 2 choices of files there, with the file awaiting a check to download and install, which I did. Rebooted my DAZ studio and made sure I selected the bottom tab "Installed" of the Smart Content pane, and there were my lovely products. I sincerely hope that this approach will work for others. Happy New Year! Might need to go to the tiny panel menu upper right and click "start CMS"
Incidentally, the Content Library works fine without the Smart Content, but the matching makes selection quick and easy, especially as I learned to make my own categories.
