Re: Change browser in MacOS

Dave,

I removed all pgadmin-related .plist’s file in ~/Library.

When starting the server my modified Browser command was still present (but no .plist file).

I shutted down/started it up several times, logged out and in, still no .plist file: the Browser command is stored somewhere else. I couldn’t find it, it’s not in my user directory, maybe in a (python) cache somewhere.

Only when I modified the Browser command, an org.pgadmin.pgadmin4.plist file was created. It looks very much like the previous one but now has an entry with the Browser command:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

<plist version="1.0">

<dict>

<key>ApplicationPath</key>

<string></string>

<key>Browser.Geometry</key>

<data>

...

</data>

<key>Browser.LastSaveLocation</key>

<string>...</string>

<key>Browser.WindowState</key>

<data>

...

</data>

<key>BrowserCommand</key>

<string>open -a /Applications/Safari.app %URL%</string>

<key>FixedPort</key>

<false/>

<key>NSNavLastRootDirectory</key>

<string>~/Downloads</string>

<key>NSNavPanelExpandedSizeForSaveMode</key>

<string>...</string>

<key>NSStatusItem Preferred Position Item-0</key>

<real>...</real>

<key>PortNumber</key>

<integer>1</integer>

<key>PythonPath</key>

<string></string>

</dict>

</plist>

I hope it’ll stick now.

Thanks

Dave,

Thanks but this is my ~/Library/Preferences/org.pgadmin.pgadmin4.plist with the Browser command filled in

(I have removed the content of the data tags)

<key>NSStatusItem Preferred Position Item-0</key>

<real></real>

</dict>

</plist>

I don’t see the command.

That looks like a file from version 1 - well, the first couple of sections. The last section doesn't match anything in pgAdmin's history. 

I would suggest renaming the file and letting pgAdmin recreate it. I would expect a version 3 file to be binary and require editing directly in xcode.
