No it doesn't, unless the OP has found some weird bug in pgAdmin or StackBuilder. Sounds to me more like OSX is throwing the dialogue for some reason when the launch daemon tries to load the service. Try running: sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.edb.launchd.postgresql-8.4 That should stop it trying to start the server, at least until the next reboot (enough to hopefully see if the focus issue is resolved). To completely uninstall, use sudo open /Library/PostgreSQL/8.4/uninstall-postgresql.app/ -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
