Ahh, you're right. I didn't change the connection settings after installing pgagent and the postgres DB, so pgadmin kept using template1 (until I reinstalled it). Stupid me. > > 2.

It is a different database on a different host, but the setup should be theoretically the same. Only that they were installed by two different persons. And no, I didn't specify a host agent. It is good news that I don't have to reinstall. But perhaps a service restart or reboot would help?
