pgAdmin 4 not starting on Windows 10 64bit


After a fresh install of postgres 9.6.0.1 for Windows 10 64bit I am not able to get pgAdmin 4 starting.

First it throws an fatal error message:

message with fatal error when trying to launch pgAdmin 4

After OK, that message appears:

Configuration path of pgadmin

Is there anything wrong? because after OK - the program won't start.

What can I do to get pgadmin 4 running? What should I enter in Python Path and what in Application Path?


Solution

  • I have found now the problem, it was the Java installation on which pgadmin 4 depend heavily.

    In Windows when installing Java 8 (Java SE in this case) you do not have to use JAVA_HOME and JAVA_JRE anylonger and you can install java with default path settings (with the version number)

    So I installed JAVA SDK 8 32 and 64bit and pgadmin start up normally. The PATH variable includes only C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath, thats all and let you use allways the latest version of java you installed.
