Hi all,
I have a database that uses the ltree extension. I typically create a new database like so (as a normal user), using my script file:CREATE DATABASE mydb WITH TEMPLATE template0 ENCODING 'UTF8';
I want a script something like:
CREATE DATABASE mydb WITH TEMPLATE template0 ENCODING 'UTF8';
\c mydb
CREATE EXTENSION ltree;
CREATE TABLE mytable(myfields);
rinse, repeat for additional tables and views.
And to be able to run it from the Bash prompt (as securely as possible).
I thought I could add the commands and run the create script by doing:
sudo -u postgres psql -U user -W -d mydb --file=/home/user/dev/mydb_create.sql
I thought that, running my script as the superuser, it would have the privileges necessary to install the extension, but I still got a "permission denied" error.
I did create a password for my postgres user (hence the -W option). And this is on a local box.
How can I run my script?
Thanks!
Don
