Since upgrading to pgAdmin 4 v1.5 on macOS Sierra (v10.12.5), it seems my database is 'broken' every time I use the pgAdmin 'Backup' tool.
Here's what happens:
* macOS Sierra v10.12.5
* postgres 9.6.2 locally installed with brew
* pgAdmin 4 v1.5 installed directly from website
* database is running fine
* use the pgAdmin Tools / Backup... utility to take a full back-up
* database is no longer working
By 'no longer working' it means that the postrges libraries have been messed up and I get the following error when I try to connect via pyscopg2 (python v3.5.2_3, pyscopg2 v2.6.2):
File "/Users/conor/virt_env/conor/lib/python3.5/site-packages/psycopg2/extras.py", line 288, in execute return super(NamedTupleCursor, self).execute(query, vars) psycopg2.InternalError: could not load library "/usr/local/lib/postgresql/plpgsql.so": dlopen(/usr/local/lib/postgresql/plpgsql.so, 10): Symbol not found: _DatumIsReadWriteExpandedObject Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/postgresql/plpgsql.so Expected in: /usr/local/opt/postgresql/bin/postgres in /usr/local/lib/postgresql/plpgsql.so
I find the only way to fix the problem is to run "brew switch postgresql 9.6.2". I don't really know what that command does but the database connections are OK after I run it. Also, the database backup file has been created successfully as far as I can tell: I have not yet attempted to restore it. One other thing is I don't get a confirmation message in the pgAdmin console the way I used to.
Can anybody help with the above problem? It has only started happening since I upgraded to pgAdmin 4 v1.5. Before that (with pgAdmin 4 v1.4) everything was fine.
