Re: pgAdmin not starting my job

Hello Dave,

Now it gets really weird: It run only once (although it is scheduled
daily)

I cannot even run it manually. If I try to, the "Last run" field does
not get updated, but the "Next run" field is updated with the current
time. However it is never executed, i.e. the "Statistics" tab always
shows the last entry is from 4/26/2009.

The service is running (I have even restarted it), but nothing is
logged in the PostgreSQL log file or the system event log.

So back to the basic question: how can I find out what is going wrong?

PS: Is there any way to see the complete text of the "Output" column
in the steps "Statistics" tab? Since the column is at the rightmost
side of the window, the tooltip window appearing does not show much
information. I have to restore the pgAdminIII window and move it to
the left side of the screen to see at leasy the first line of the log
file.
I know I can view the log in pga_jobsteplog table, but it would be
helpful if the jsloutput content could be displayed in an editor.
