Comment:

 Nevermind I'm an idiot. Though I don't know if its worthwhile to make this
 idiot proof.

 You can take out the pgAdmin one its not necessary the original gui works
 fine.  I just had the wrong switches in my ini file because I was copying
 from the psql one assuming they worked the same.  Though annoyed idiot
 user response "You should have given me some message that I'm an idiot,
 instead of a screen that doesn't come up." :)

 So changing to the below fixed my issue

 {{{
