Thread: Import csv problem
I'm running 4.25 under Kubuntu 20.04 On opening the import/export dialog and switching to Import and trying to find a file to import I find: The file name box has a / symbol. The home button has no effect The move up the tree button has no effect. I see two folders I have created New Folder and New Folder _1. I can find these folders in /var/lib/pgadmin/storage/username/userlogin email. The directories have the properties: drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data www-data 4096 Sep 27 07:20 'New Folder' drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data www-data 4096 Sep 27 07:20 'New Folder_1' Am I missing something? I haven't needed to use the import dialogue for a while now, but have used it without problem in the past. Tony
Hi Tony,
In server mode, pgAdmin does not allow a user to access the server's file system outside the user's directory. So if you click on the home button or put "/" in the path, it will take you to /var/lib/pgadmin/storage/<email>.
