[pgadmin-support] Bug report: Syntax Coloring
Syntax coloring in PgAdmin3 (Version 1.10.3 on MacOS) does not correctly deal with nested comments. Try entering the following in the "Query" window: /* /*NESTED COMMENT*/ THIS IS STILL A COMMENT */ the words "THIS IS STILL A COMMENT" do not have the comment color. The PostgreSQL docs specify that comments may be nested, see: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/sql-syntax-lexical.html#SQL-SYNTAX-COMMENTS Best Regards, Jakob Egger -- Sent via pgadmin-support mailing list (pgadmin-support@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgadmin-support
Re: [pgadmin-support] "Invalid byte sequence" message
Just found this in my log file: ERROR: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xe3bc64 STATEMENT: SELECT pg_file_read('pg_log/postgresql-2011-02-16_00.log', 10, 5) Still not sure what's going on there. Apparently the contents of the logfile are not valid UTF8 characters. Also, after i clicked the message boxes away, the log files contents appear incomplete in the log viewer (a couple hours worth of entries are simply missing).

My environment is: - PostgreSQL 9.0.2 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc (Debian 4.3.2-1.1) 4.3.2, 32-bit - PgAdmin III v.1.12.2 on Win 7 64 bits - A 152 MB Database in UTF8 encoding - use backup of pgAdmin with defaults (any changes made) What I can see in the task manager of Win 7 is that the command pg_dump runs by some seconds and then it closes, then another time it runs by some seconds and then it closes... I think this is what makes the refreshing look of all the desktop and the slow pg_dump process. The only thing that I can assume is that the pg_dump is being made table by table instead of the entire database or something like that, cause, this started after in the PgAdmin has delivered the "object" selector functionality in the backup wizard. Hopefully this could help.

[pgadmin-support] dynamic results of a PG_Dump or pg_Restore in the list
To Whom it may concern PgAdmin is fantastic. Lets just star there. Been using it since 8.2 of postgres and it is the tool of choice. One think I always wanted to ask for as an enhancement is that the backup and restore functions for the database display 'live' results in the log window rather than waiting for the end of the full restore. It's really handy to know where in the process something is, the table being restored, the indexes being created, etc. ...as it happens. it also would give insight to other things on a machine. I often end up running pg_restore/pg_dump in terminal command line so that I can see the ongoing progress and judge how much time I have left to keep myself occupied doing coding while the restore finishes. It does it nicely for a vacuum explain, but then I guess that is results coming back from the database itself, so the implementation of the feature might be different.

[pgadmin-support] Bug - Rows in Query Output pane fail to grow in height when font size preference size is larger
I'm new to Postgres and pgAdmin -- Where should I report a bug in pgAdmin? I found an annoying cosmetic bug in pgAdmin where the rows in the data grid showing the result of a SQL execution are not re-sized to accommodate a very large font size set in preferences. 1) Set Preferences > Query Tool (tab) > Font to a larger size, such as 24 points. Click OK to apply. 2) Quit pgAdmin, to be sure new preferences take effect. Restart pgAdmin. 3) Select Tools > Query Tool, to open an interactive SQL session window. 4) Execute some SQL, such as: select now(); Notice the bug: Row 1 in the Output pane is not tall enough to show the large font size of the text. The text is clipped vertically. While cosmetic, this bug affects: - People doing presentations on overhead projectors where increasing the font size makes reading easier for the audience. - People with a preference for larger fonts, often needed on certain computers screens. - People with visual/sight challenges pgAdmin3 1.12.2 on Mac OS X 10.6.5, installed by Postgres 9.0.x. And thanks to all who work on pgAdmin. It has been very useful to me, and I've found it to be very stable and well-built. --Basil Bourque -- Sent via pgadmin-support mailing list (pgadmin-support@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgadmin-support
