Thread: pgAdmin 4 v2, server cannot be connected
Atte. Ronald ViscarraHi, recently I updated from v1.6 to v2, the first time works fine, then I closed pgAdmin and tried to open it again, but says "the server cannot be connected" or something similar, I dont remember well, so, I deleted all into folder "c:\{myuser}\AppData\Roaming\pgAdmin", and tried to open it again, that works, but all time says that there's new version available and the version installed is 1.6, in windows/panel control, says version 2, icons changed too, to version 1.6 why?, and why now is working and not when is a fresh install of version2 after first open?
Hi
The version number comes from the config file, normally config.py, but overridable in config_distro.py or config_local.py in the web/ directory of the installation. If I had to guess, I suggest that maybe you copied config.py from one installation to the other at some point (maybe you copied it to config_local.py originally, then copied that into the new installation)?

In a standard installation, the two versions should exist quite happily side by side, though only the latest will probably run due to changes in the config database (that shouldn't be an issue with >= 2.0, only with older versions). I have many versions installed for example, on both Windows and Mac.
A couple of possible issues could be causing this:
- You're using a shortcut that is actually pointing to the older version.
- The runtime has the "path to webapp" setting configured, and is pointing to the old version. Check in the registry for the ApplicationPath and PythonPath settings in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\pgadmin\pgadmin4, and remove them if present.

Hi, I know both could exists side by side, but I would like to just keep the lates one, and remove the old one.
I make a particular shortcut for running newest version and is working great.

If it was installed with PostgreSQL 9.6, then you cannot remove it without removing all of PostgreSQL. From PG 10 onwards it's an optional component though.
