Hi Tom. Finding where the error is thrown is easy, it's when I'm doing that grant. But the code creates two larguish schemas before that and several ROLEs, so it's not easy to share. I trapped the error in the code, and here's the details ERROR: XX000: no possible grantors LOCATION: check_role_grantor, user.c:2229 I used PQresultVerboseErrorMessage(). Tell me if you need some other error field This is against a 17.0 server, for the line number above. If I shared (privately) a libpq client-side trace with you Tom, would that help you? This particular test, I could redesign to work-around this issue probably. But this is not the only tests that fails with a NOINHERIT user on v16+, and I haven't tracked down all the reasons yet... PS: I can't easily get server-side logs
