I installed pgAdmin 1.6.3 on Windows XP Czech version

After I could log in to the database, the program displayed the message it
cannot write the file

"c:\Documents and Settings\linhart1\Data aplikací\postgresql\pgpass.conf"

(The "application data" directory is localized to "data aplikací" on czech
windows)

And after I confirmed this message, the program crashed.

The given file and not even the directory

c:\Documents and Settings\linhart1\Data aplikací\postgresql

existed.

After I created the directory only, it did not helped, but after I created
the file itself

c:\Documents and Settings\linhart1\Data aplikací\postgresql\pgpass.conf

with one comment line the bug did not appeared.

This is not a terrible bug, but it could be problem for some less skilled
windows users...

With best regards

Archie
