Hi, 

Yes it is throwing error due to password salt, It would be better if you follow  steps from https://www.pgadmin.org/docs/pgadmin4/4.14/import_export_servers.html for migration.


Please note that as of now there is no way of exporting pgAdmin4 settings.

Hi,

We are running pgadmin4 v 3.4 and are migration to a new server and a new version 4.12..

We have copied the old pgadmin4.db to the new server in order to keep the users settings and passwords. Settings is working but not the passwords. We get an

"Failed to decrypt the saved password. Error: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x92 in position 0: invalid start byte"

Maybe this is related to some salt in the passwords but I am not sure.

How should we correctly migrate from one server to another ?

Best and thanks for a very good application. It's just getting better and better.
