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.

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? There might be stale locks somewhere (I am
only guessing).
