pg_dump executable is missing

Completed

Hi there

I'm trying to run dump with pg dump, but it says the executable is missing. Any idea?

Am using DataGrip 2017.3.7

Build #DB-173.4674.7, built on February 28, 2018

pg_dump is normally in your install dir. Something like C:\\PostgreSQL\pg96/binpg_dump.exe. You have to upgrade the field that says "Path to pg_dump". It had the red exclamation mark.

You also need to be sure postgresql has permissions to write to the target directory.

Hi Antonyo

 

Thanks for your quick response. I can't see the PostgreSOL folder suggested.

@Alibega Since you want to invoke restore action you need specify path to pg_restore.exe. What I see on your screenshot is path to pg_dump.exe.

 

E.g.:

What if postgre is running inside docker?

Then you need to download PostgreSQL binaries in zip archive, unpack it and find utilities in ...\bin folder.

The same question but my PostgreSQL is in docker

So I installed the docker plugin successfully.

Then ? to fill in the Datagrip form Path to pg_dump

In case you want to use pg_dump in DataGrip you have to install it locally on your machine.
