Thread: ERROR: column "datpath" does not exist
Hello I'm trying to create a simple database with PgAdmin3 but I got an error message: ERROR: column "datpath" does not exist I had never get this kind type of error message. I've used PostgreSQL and PgAdmin3 casually some about a year now. Can anyone help me to figure out this problem? OS: Fedora Core 4 PostgreSQL 8.0.4 PgAdmin3 I do not think so that how I'd created the datatabe could be the cause to this problem. I did not used any additional parameters in a commandline when I created this database. This is a part of my studywork and I'm now on a dead-end in here. I did not found any helpful answers from this and other Postgres mailing list or from the Google. Regards, Jarkko Elfving

That't the point. I'm not able to create any tables or any other jobs either. I open the connection to "server" via pgAdmin3 and move to Database "column". Then I got the error message. When I try to create another database within pgAdmin3, I got the error message. > > > > I've used PostgreSQL and PgAdmin3 casually some about a year now.

According to www.pgadmin.org the latest versions are 1.2.2 and 1.4Beta-3. datpath was one of the columns in pg_database in pre-8.0 versions of PostgreSQL; your version of pgAdmin3 appears to be assuming datpath's presence. -- Michael Fuhr

Better get a newer version of PgAdmin --- it appears to be too old for
PG 8.0.

Thank's for all you who helped me around of this problem. The answer was too old pgAdmin3 client. I'm pleased now. Thanks!
