PGAdmin 4 Debugger not working ? on Windows 10 x64
If the debugger in PGAdmin 4 is not working on Windows 10 x64, you can try the following troubleshooting steps:
Make sure you have installed the correct version of PGAdmin 4 that is compatible with your PostgreSQL installation. Check the compatibility matrix provided by PGAdmin to ensure you have the correct version.
Verify that the debugging features are enabled in your PostgreSQL server configuration. Open the
postgresql.conf
file and check theshared_preload_libraries
setting. Ensure thatpg_stat_statements
andpldebugger
are included in the list of shared libraries to load.Restart the PostgreSQL server to apply the configuration changes.
Check if there are any firewall or antivirus settings blocking the debugger. Temporarily disable any firewall or antivirus software and see if the debugger works. If it does, you may need to add exceptions or adjust the settings of your security software to allow the debugger to function properly.
Ensure that the required debugging extensions are installed in your PostgreSQL server. Run the following SQL commands to verify and install the extensions if needed:
sqlSELECT pg_extension.*, pg_catalog.pg_available_extension_versions();
CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pg_stat_statements;
CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pldebugger;
Verify that the debugger plugin is enabled in your PGAdmin 4 settings. Open PGAdmin 4, go to File -> Preferences -> Debugger and ensure that the "Enable the debugger" option is checked.
If none of the above steps work, try reinstalling PGAdmin 4 and ensure that you have the latest version from the official website. Follow the installation instructions carefully and verify that all the required dependencies are properly installed.
If the issue persists after trying these steps, you may need to seek further assistance from the PGAdmin community or consider using alternative debugging tools for PostgreSQL.
