Hi,
I am having a few problems with access permissions.
When I create a new role with NOCREATEUSER and then create a database for that role I can connect to the DB but when trying to create a db object I will get the ERROR: permission denied for schema public.
Strangely though, if the role is created with CREATEUSERS I don't have any problems.
Here is what I want to do:
- Create a DBO role e.g. dbo_xxx NOCREATEDB NOCREATEUSER
- Create a db mydb WITH OWNER db_xxx
- REVOKE all connection rights from public
- GRANT only rights to dbo_xxx
- GRANT all create rights on mydb TO dbo_xxx ; allowing the user to load the db schema
This is what I tried
REVOKE ALL ON SCHEMA public FROM PUBLIC;
CREATE USER dbo_xxx WITH PASSWORD 'mypass' NOCREATEDB NOCREATEUSER;
CREATE DATABASE my_db WITH OWNER dbo_xxx ENCODING 'UTF8';
REVOKE CONNECT ON DATABASE my_db FROM PUBLIC;
GRANT CONNECT ON DATABASE my_db TO dbo_xxx;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE my_db TO dbo_xxx;
-- After schema is loaded
CREATE USER read_only WITH PASSWORD 'mypass' NOCREATEDB NOCREATEUSER;
REVOKE ALL ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA public FROM PUBLIC ;
GRANT SELECT ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA public TO read_only ;
But i end up with permission denied errors.
Anyone having a suggestion how to get this to work? Did I mess up permissions in public schema?
Any help and suggestion is greatly appreciated.
Alex
