Re: pgAdmin 4 v6.3 installed OK but will not run - Mailing list pgadmin-support

Issue resolved.

I didn't discover what was wrong but by uninstalling v5 & v6 again and removing every pgAdmin file in ...Users\PAJ\AppData\ and re-installing, v6 started OK.
Thanks Aditya for your assistance.

Hi Aditya,

In ...\PAJ\AppData\Local\pgadmin
the latest log file is: pgadmin4.1636437374039.log  modified 9/11/2021 (9 Nov.)

 

Kind regards,

Peter Johnson

Hi Peter,

Can you check the directory %APPDATA%/local/pgadmin to find the latest timestamp log ? I missed the log file changes in the new version.

Hi Aditya,

There is no such file for v6.

There is a file for v4, but the timing shows it was when I was trying to run v5 & v4 after finding that v6 would not run. Here is an extract from the v4 log file (C:/Users/PAJ/.pgAdmin4.2496472524.log), fyi:

etc.

Is there some option to turn on such logging for v6?

Kind regards,

Hi Peter,

Can you find a file with name like - pgAdmin4.startup.log in Users home directory ? Please share the file.

Hi Aditya,
Unfortunately, there's nothing to take a screenshot of. I double-click on the program link in the Win Start Menu, execution activity starts (the Windows rotating circle indicating its waiting), then nothing. No pgAdmin start page; nothing.

Kind regards,

Context: Windows 10 desktop, python 3.8.7, pgAdmin 4 v4, pgAdmin 4 v5.

I have been running pgAdmin 4 v5 for a year+ with no problems. I installed
pgadmin4-6.3-x64.exe. The installation was trouble-free. On opening, there are
signs of execution activity but then nothing, the program fails to start.

Also now pgAdmin 4 v5 shows the same behaviour and then fails to start. pgAdmin 4 v4
still starts & runs successfully.

I have repeated the software download and uninstalled/reinstalled, with and without
running as administrator.

I would like to get v6 running. I cannot find any logs that indicate what is happening at
startup. Is there a detailed log I can turn on or do you have any other suggestions?
