Hi,
I'm using PostgreSQL 9.3.2
I'm running the command:
psql -h testserver -U ronb -f backup.sql -q -d foldertest 2>error.txt
output.txt
What was the command that created backup.sql?
This should generate my database in foldertest
However this doesn't work. It's unable to create schemas
in the error.txt i see "permission denied for database foldertest".
What user is the foldertest owner?
In psql \l will tell you this.
I know this is not an access permission issue because there is a public
schema which is buildin and it does create the tables/data in there.
Because the public schema is by default open to all:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/ddl-schemas.html
"A user can also be allowed to create objects in someone else's schema.
To allow that, the CREATE privilege on the schema needs to be granted.
Note that by default, everyone has CREATE and USAGE privileges on the
schema public. This allows all users that are able to connect to a given
database to create objects in its public schema. ... "
It just cant create new schemas.
In psql do \dn+, that will show schema owners and who else has privileges.
For what the different privileges are and how they are represented in
the above output see:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/sql-grant.html
The intresting thing is that if I do:
psql -h testserver -U postgres -f backup.sql -q -d foldertest
2>error.txt >output.txt
Everything works. It create all schemas and generate the database correctly.
Because the postgres user is a superuser and can do anything.
I don't see any diffrent in the hba.conf between postgres and ronb users.
That is not the issue. pg_hba determines who can connect, what you are
seeing is the Postgres privilege system determining what a user can do
once they are connected. If it had been a pg_hba rejection you would
have seen something like:
aklaver@tito:~> psql -d production -U guest -h localhost
psql: FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host "::1", user "guest",
database "production", SSL on
FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host "::1", user "guest", database
"production", SSL off
To get an overview of what users there are in your database cluster in
psql do \du
What can be the problem?
