Sorry - my fault. That one is actually registered by pgAgent when it's installed as a service - at least it should be. Assuming your pgAgent service id is 'pgagent', you can manually install by creating the registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Application\pgagent

and then adding a string value called EventMessageFile, containing the full path and filename of pgaevent.dll, and a dword value called TypesSupported with a value of 7.

Those entries should be created when you install pgagent as a service though; and if it can't create them, you definitely should see an error.


These values are already in place.

So you need to specify the password - see the bottom section of http://www.pgadmin.org/docs/1.6/pgagent-install.html which discusses the database password.

I already have pgpass.conf file in place.

For you, or the postgres user account that the service runs under? You need the latter. Also, if you're using 127.0.0.1 as the address, try localhost instead (or vice-versa). The value there should match the value used in the pgAgent connection string of course.



I have tried using both of these values and also the hostname as well. But nothing worked.

Thanks for all your time and support. I have managed to run the pgAgent working fine. The service was running under postgres account but pgpass.conf file was missing in the same. I created one and it worked.

Thanks for your suggestions.
