Hi John,
I logged into the same database. I can say the commands, and you can correct me if I'm wrong.
Ordinary User: psql -h localhost -d db -U ordinaryusername
Select * from contacts
Now, I can access the tables. I also do have the .SQL file where it states the table schema as follows:
CREATE USER sa;
GRANT ALL ON DATABASE db TO sa;
\c db sa
CREATE SCHEMA AUTHORIZATION sa;
ALTER USER sa SET search_path TO sa,public;
CREATE TABLE sa.contacts (
contact_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
contact_type INTEGER DEFAULT 0,
display_name TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
UNIQUE(display_name)
) WITHOUT OIDS;
I logged into the database as a super-user: psql -h localhost -d db -U postgres
Select * from contacts;
ERROR: relation "contacts" does not exist.
Could you please guide me on this part? I wish to access the table using the super-user.
Thanks and Regards,
Siva.
