pgAdmin FAQ

• When I run pgAdmin I get an error like: "Run-time error '430': Class does not support Automation or does not support expected interface."

• When I run pgAdmin I get an error like: "Run-time error '3706': Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed.."

  Try re-installing the latest version of MDAC which is available from http://www.microsoft.com/data

• I get errors like: "pgadmin_desc does not exist" and "The rowset does not support fetching backwards" when browsing columns in the table browser, also, every time I log in, pgAdmin trys to create a table called "pgadmin_desc".

  In the DSN configuration, make sure the Use Declare/Fetch option is not checked.

• Where's the documentation?

  You're reading it! Seriously, we don't have the time to do more than add tooltips so if anyone wants to write some helpfiles...

• Where do I get support?

  Try either the pgAdmin Support mailing list - pgAdmin-support@greatbridge.org or the pgAdmin project site at http://www.greatbridge.org/project/pgadmin/. Many users also read the pgsql-interfaces mailing list (see http://www.postgresql.org). We cannot guarantee that we can help or even have the time to try but we will do our best.

   

• Where are new releases announced?
  
  You can subscribe to the pgAdmin-announce mailing list at http://www.greatbridge.org/project/pgadmin/ to get announcements as they are made. They will generally be CC'd to the pgsql-interfaces list as well.
