Do you have shp2gpsql-gui installed on your system? That's why I was asking 
which distribution you are using, because many don't come with the 
shp2gpsql-gui executable. The PostGIS Shapefile Import/Export (shp2pgsql-gui 
(is the filename))

never had anything to do with pgAdmin3.  It followed the pgAdmin3 protocol for 
plugins was all, but runs perfectly fine without pgAdmin3.

 

If you don't have shp2pgsql-gui installed on your Mac, you can't use it even if 
you have pgAdmin3 installed.

Carson,

 

You'd need shp2pgsql-gui installed (and pgAdmin3 didn't come with that).  That 
always got packaged with the desktop distributions that included PostGIS.

 

All pgAdmin3 really helped you with was prefilling the connection info, which 
turned out to be more convenient than I thought.  It's amazing how lazy I've 
become.

 

If you can find where the shp2pgsql-gui binary is installed on your system you 
can launch it directly and then click the "View connection details" and fill in 
the information that pgAdmin3 would so conveniently fill in for you.

Should I just download pgAdmin 3?

Carson,

 

Do you compile your own PostGIS or you get from a distribution.  We still have 
shp2pgsql-gui in PostGIS code base, and I still ship it as part of the Windows 
EDB builds.

 

Unfortunately pgAdmin4 plugin architecture changed from pgAdmin3 days, so 
shp2gpsql-gui cannot work as a plugin under pgAdmin4.

 

I took it out of our upcoming PostGIS In Action book we are doing because of 
that and hoping we'll have a replacement for it soon that piggy backs on 
shp2pgsql commandline.

Hello,

 

I have a Macbook Pro and am using PGAdmin 4 and PostGIS. I cannot seem to find 
the PostGIS 2.0 Shapefile and DBF Loader. Can anyone help with this? Is there 
something else I need to download? Thanks.
