If you saw a red 'X' over the icon next to " PostgreSQL > Database Server 8.2 (localhost:5432)" then the server would be offline. Err, no - a red cross means pgAdmin hasn't connected to that server yet. For a windows server, on the local machine the presence of the Stop Service option means it's running (it'll also have a 'Running' value in the properties list). On other platforms it's a bit more complex and depends on whether the user has configured service control scripts for pgAdmin to use. -- Dave Page EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
