PgAdmin fatal error. The appllication server could not be contacted

A couple of days before I have installed on my PC with Windows 7 Professional new version of PgAdmin (version 4). It worked fine, but today it loads slowly and then information window appears with text: "PgAdmin fatal error. The appllication server could not be contacted.". I restarted windows, but it doesn't help. Is there any solution of this problem? Thanks.

  1. in C:\Users(your username)\AppData\Roaming delete folder pgAdmin (AppData - is hidden folder)
  2. run pgadmin with administrator.

This was odd, my PATH variable which had the python interpreter in it was somehow a factor, I do not completely understand though, right after I removed it everything worked, I will look further into it but so far I think that if you have python interpreter it might be the one causing the issue.

I had to reinstall it, as Steve suggested in comments. Then it started working again.

It's probably best to start with Ray Jowa's solution -- try right clicking the PgAdmin icon and clicking "Run as administrator".

worked for me if I run PgAdmin as administrator.

Right click on the .exe file and run as administrator. It will work.

I tried all options mentioned in link Postgresql can't connect application server through PGAdmin4 .

But none of the options worked, then launching C:\Program Files (x86)\pgAdmin 4\v2\runtime\pgAdmin4.exe from command prompt worked fine.
