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";
