I think this message should be sent to the qgis-user mailing list
as the plugin is a QGis plugin.

>> i try to use the PostGIS Manager Plugin 0.5.15 for QGIS 1.7.3 with the postgresql 9.1 and postgis 1.5.3 database on my MacBookPro with Mac OSX Lion 10.7.2.

PostGis Manager assumes that shp2pgsql executable is in PATH
environment variable. It's unable to find it, so it throws an OSError
exception.

I'm sure that after adding shp2pgsql to the PATH env var it should
work fine, but I've no Mac so I cannot say how to do this...

I hope this helps.
Regards.
