Thread: pgadmin from 9.0RC1 in 8.2.4 status cannot cast type xid to text error
I ran PgAdmin from 9.0RC1 in windows and selected Tools/Server status for 8.2.4 server After that messagebox with error --------------------------- pgAdmin III --------------------------- An error has occurred: ERROR: cannot cast type xid to text LINE 1: SELECT transaction::text, gid, prepared, owner, database FRO... ^ --------------------------- OK --------------------------- occurs after every few seconds After some time there are hundreds of messageboxes in screen. Message boxes continue to apper even if status window is closed. How to fix ? Andrus.

I can't help with the cast error, but you can reduce the frequency with which pgAdmin reloads the server status - in the toolbar at the top, there's a drop-down combo with various refresh rates. This will at least stop all those error dialogs popping up, and give you a chance to fix the real problem. :-) Ray. -- Raymond O'Donnell :: Galway :: Ireland rod@iol.ie

Run pgAdmin 1.12.1, not a release candidate. -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise Postgres Company
