Re: Drop Default Privileges?

[Fabio Pardi <f.pardi@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Louis,

I think 'alter user' can do the job for you.

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-alteruser.html

Else, as alternative: before running pg_restore, you could edit the dump and replace the string 'ROLE postgres' with the correct user on the RDS instance.

Is it possible to drop default privileges?

I’m attempting to run a pg_restore into an RDS instance, which doesn’t have a “postgres” user.

I encounter many messages like so:

ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES...

pg_restore: [archiver (db)] Error from TOC entry 10182; 826 253752252 DEFAULT ACL DEFAULT PRIVILEGES FOR TABLES postgres

pg_restore: [archiver (db)] could not execute query: ERROR:  role "postgres" does not exist

    Command was: ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES FOR ROLE postgres IN SCHEMA abc_schema REVOKE ALL ON TABLES  FROM PUBLIC;

I’d like to remove these default privileges on the source database to avoid this error message, but I can’t find the syntax in the documentation (or if it’s possible). I only see GRANT/REVOKE options.

Thanks,

Louis
