Re: Installing pgAdmin 4 in Runtime Mode (stand alone) in Linux - Mailing list pgadmin-support

Oops made the same mistake twice: this is the new python setup: Can you please remove the virtualenvs folder: rm -rf ~/virtualenvs And than redo the updated "Python setup": pip3 install virtualenv mkdir ~/virtualenvs/ virtualenv -p python3 ~/virtualenvs/pgadmin4/ source ~/virtualenvs/pgadmin4/bin/activate That should do it: ~/pgadmin4-2.0/runtime/pgAdmin4 2017-11-23 16:23 GMT+01:00 F.Sluiter : > Hi Rich, > Thx for trying!
