Hi there,

pgAdmin4 acted up today when I start using it mid afternoon - I was presented a "blank" page after login (see image below).  We tried different browsers on different OS with the same issue. Please kindly advise.

My server is Ubuntu 18.04 and here is the content of file "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list"

deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ bionic-pgdg main

    Hi Dave,

    Thanks for responding so quickly. I should have been clearer - I did
    that before the OS upgrade, going for the big-bang approach to the
    upgrade (yes, I know that that's living dangerously!), so my current
    installation is from the buster repo. I assumed that the pgAdmin and
    Python libraries would have been upgraded along with everything else
    when I did the OS upgrade - was I wrong?


I don't know if dist-upgrade would have dealt with pgAdmin as well or not. It's possible there's some dependency or other missing now though I guess, so it probably wouldn't hurt to uninstall and then reinstall the packages.

If that doesn't work, try running the pgAdmin binary from the command line and see if it complains about anything that's missing.
