Hi all,
I've just set up a test user, revoked all access from them to a
database, then tried to connect to that database and it let me in.
When I try it all from scratch, it works correctly.
Here's the set running correctly:
postgres=# CREATE DATABASE testdb;
CREATE DATABASE
postgres=# CREATE ROLE testrole;
CREATE ROLE
postgres=# REVOKE ALL ON DATABASE testdb FROM testrole CASCADE;
REVOKE
postgres=# \c testdb testrole
FATAL: role "testrole" is not permitted to log in
Previous connection kept
But now if I try something similar with an existing user and existing
database, it doesn't work:
postgres=# REVOKE ALL ON DATABASE stuff FROM meow CASCADE;
REVOKE
postgres=# \c stuff meow
You are now connected to database "stuff" as user "meow".
So, I'm overlooking something. Could someone tell me what it is? I
bet it's something obvious. I'm using 9.1dev if it's relevant.
Thanks
Not sure, but is user "meow" either the owner of the database "stuff" or
member of a group that permits access to "stuff"?
Cheers,
Steve
