Thread: Backup on a shared server doesn't seem to work.
Hello,
I'm running some pgadmin4 on Kubernetes clusters, using the image dpage/pgadmin4:5.
I've created multiple servers from the default account and shared them to my users, unfortunately when they try to open the Backup dialog box, the following message is displayed :

The Backup dialog box works fine from the default account.
I've tried to open the dialog box on a shared database from an administrator account, which shows me the same message.
The "Binary paths" configuration seems fine since it's the same in the default account and the user accounts.
I can't see any error message in docker logs.
If I recreate the exact same server from an user account and hit Backup on this one, it works well, so I guess the problem comes from the sharing, although the documentation states these limitations but doesn't mention dumping or restoring :
I couldn't find anything on the mailing list about this and I found an old bug on redmine (pgadmin/#3722), which doesn't seem related to shared servers.The Users accessing the shared servers cannot do the following operations on the shared servers:
Create a server
Delete the server
Rename the server
Rename the group server
Change of host, port, and maintenance database
Is there any way to increase log verbosity or do you have any idea what's going on ?
Thanks for your support,

Hi Bastien,
This is an issue. We are working on it and the fix will be available in the next pgAdmin release.
