I am trying, without success, to create a PG-9.2 database without including the plpgsql extension. I have tried specifying template0 and the database is nonetheless created with plpgsql. I have deleted plpgsql from template1 and the new database is nonetheless created with plpgsql. I desire to remove plpgsql from newly created databases because the dump that is generated by pgdump contains this line: CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS plpgsql WITH SCHEMA pg_catalog; And for some reason this statement causes my test suit to fail with this error: psql:/home/byrnejb/Projects/Software/theHeart/code/proforma_rails_3_2/db/structure.sql:22: ERROR: must be owner of extension plpgsql I do not understand why this happens since, as I read this, if the plpgsql extension already exists in the database, which it does, then this statement should not be executed at all. But it does. Further, I do not understand why or how plpgsql is being included into databases on create as I have removed it from template1 and it does not exist in template0 to begin with. I note that plpgsql has NO owner specified in the newly created database, which mystifies me as well. Naively I thought that newly created databases would have all of their components owned by the database owner. How do I resolve this problem? -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.
