I want to use pgadmin to set up some tables, rather than do all the
psql statements from the terminal.
When I try to add a server, though, pgadmin fails to connect, and asks
whether the server is accepting TCP/IP connections on the default
port, and whether localhost is the correct servername.
I assume that both of these ARE set to the defaults, because if I
simply type
$ psql contacts
I go right into psql, where I am allowed to make and alter tables.
Is there something along the lines of a "psql -v" that would tell
me what the server calls itself, and what ports it's listening on (oh,
and whether it's allowing TCP/IP connections)?
If not, is there better help on this pgadmin3 dialogue somewhere? The
stock documentation is very thin.
Best,
Matt

The server doesn't use TCP/IP by default. You can change this by
editing the postgresql.conf file in the server's data directory (the
location of which varies depending on how PG was installed) and
setting 'tcpip_socket' to 'true', then restarting the server.
You may also need to edit pg_hba.conf, depending on whether you're
connecting from the local machine and how you have your databases set
up.

In that case you are not using TCP/IP to localhost, but a Unix socket.
Try "psql -h localhost contacts" to see the difference.
Edit $PGDATA/pg_hba.conf to change the settings (and then signal the
postmaster or restart it).

Hi All,
I've a problem using PGAdmin III. When I click on one of my functions the

My other problem is that PGAdmin won't handle '?' (euro) sign. It shows the

I am using PGADMIN III v1.1.0 Windows to set up PostgreSQL tables on a
Linux Server, RedHat 9. Every time I create a character field, even just
one character wide, the PGADMIN uses EXTENDED as the default storage type.
Is this normal? I can't find anything about why this would be done in the
PostgreSQL documentation or the Internet. It seems to me it will be very
messy if every character field is in a secondary table. I would have

HI,
I'm using pgadmin III 1.2.0 Post Beta 1 (Sept 17 2004). I used it to execute
a SQL script that creates tables and inserts data. At the end, I get a
message saying that everything went through correctly. However, when I try
to view the data in the pgadmin window, nothing shows up.
My backend is PG 8.0 Beta 2 on Windows 2000.
Any ideas on what the problem could be?
