Description: Can't connecto to server with pgAdmin after installation
Details:
Just installed the Postgre, launched pgAdmin III, try to connect to the
localhost server with a proper password, receive error messages:
FATAL: cannot open the logfile!
and the other one:
can't open file
c:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\postgresql\pgpass.conf (error 3:
system cannon find path specified)
after showing this, Vista closes pgAdmin III reporting that it made an
error.
I tried to launch pgAdmin without AND with admin privileges - same result.
