Cannot connet to localhost:5432
I have installed postres and pgAdmin successfully and it is running in my task manager, but I just cannot connect to it. I also cannot sign in to it when I should type a password after
psql message, even though I am sure typing it correctly.

is that the port for pgAdmin?
yes
iirc thats the standard port for pgsql itself
yes, it is
pgsql != pgadmin
these are not the same
it's the standart
I have installed postgres latest version for windows first, then I couldn't open pgAdmin, because it was loading forever.
Then I have installed pgAdmin manually

okay so
pgadmin and pgsql are two entirely different things
5432 is your PGSQL
not pgadmin
yes.
and pgsql doesnt listen on http
yuo cant visit it in a browser
so you need to check what port your pgadmin is running on, and visit that
how do I?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
probably check your config file for pgadmin?
ok
thx
5050 according to google
but it can be anything
pgadmin has a desktop version
you don't need to install it as a web service if you don't need to
