Hello, I'm running version 8.4.1 and have a table that appears on listing ( when i run \l ) but i can't drop it. Example: postgres=# \l List of databases Name | Owner | Encoding | Collation | Ctype | Access privileges -----------+----------+----------+-------------+-------------+----------------------- skynet | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.UTF-8 | en_US.UTF-8 | t1 | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.UTF-8 | en_US.UTF-8 | template0 | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.UTF-8 | en_US.UTF-8 | =c/postgres : postgres=CTc/postgres template1 | postgres | UTF8 | en_US.UTF-8 | en_US.UTF-8 | =c/postgres : postgres=CTc/postgres postgres=# drop database skynet; ERROR: database "skynet" does not exist I intentionally removed other databases name. Also, i verified that i can run CREATE DATABASE skynet having two databases with the same name. Any ideas of what causes this problem?

You have a space at the beginning of the name. Try: drop database " skynet"; -- Adrian Klaver adrian.klaver@xxxxxxxxx -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
