It probably doesn't matter since there is nothing in the database. I don't remember  how I created the database. It appears that postgresql does not like a dash in the database name. I have not tried to create a table under the database. When I try to drop the database I get the following..

date_time=# DROP DATABASE test-aria;
ERROR:  syntax error at or near "-"
LINE 1: DROP DATABASE test-aria;

DROP DATABASE "test-aria";

See below for more info:

Thanks;
