Answer 1

The message database "pma-springbootdb" does not exist is self-explanatory.

This database does not exist in the PostgreSQL instance running on localhost with port 5432. Either it's a wrong database name or it's the wrong instance.

Please doublecheck: pma-springbootdb vs pma-springbootbd
