Sorry I can not help with PgAdmin. I do not use PgAdmin and would have to install it to try. Installing PgAdmin is not a step I care to take.

The one time I accessed an exported Discourse database was to use install PostgreSQL, odbc-postgresql and use [iusql](http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man1/isql.1.html) as noted [here](https://swi-prolog.discourse.group/t/swi-prolog-connecting-to-postgresql-via-odbc/2404).
