the problematic key was:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PostgreSQL\Services\pgsql-8.0-beta1
this key exists (and existed when the error was reported). if i remember correctly, there was something about a missing file in the error i got. in this key i have the following data stored: data dir, superuser, display name, encoding, locale and service account.
regards, M

hi!
i noticed that pgadmin found i have a server running on the same machine and it automatically added it to the object browser. the first few times it also reported an error about not being able to read the pgsql key from the registry but it still added the server to the list, now it just adds it even if i delete it. could there be an option where pgadmin would list any servers it can find and i could then check which i'd like to see at startup, even if i or any other user accidentally deletes them? or if i could just turn off this feature of automatically adding the server to the list?
I wonder why you wouldn't like to see the server on your very own machine. I'm not too inclined to change the detection feature (the missing key could come from an older pginstaller, what's the exact key?)
