Обсуждение: Configs config_local.py/config_system.py are ignored ?

I am trying to modify settings of my pgadmin4 installation.

 

I made a copy of my config.py file as config_local.py and config_system.py but any settings I change inside these configs have no effect.

 

If I change the same settings within config.py, it works perfectly. What could be the issue, since one is not supposed to modify config.py?

 

 

Hi, I also tried only adding the changed settings to the configs; did not work. The other configs are in the same directory as the main config.py file.

Hi Ross,

 

You should not copy http://config.py to create config_local or config_system. Start with a blank file and add only changed params.

Please check - https://www.pgadmin.org/docs/pgadmin4/7.0/config_py.html#the-config-py-file if you're putting the file in the correct locations for pgAdmin to pick.

Apologies, I didn’t realise that config_system.py needs to be in a separate location to config.py and config_local.py.

 

All working fine now.
