Manually clearing "database "foo" is being accessed by other users"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

  I'm finding that routinely when I try to reload a database on a server
where I know there are no connections to a given DB I get the error:

$ dropdb foo && createdb foo -O bar && psql foo -f /path/to/db.out
dropdb: database removal failed: ERROR:  database "foo" is being
accessed by other users

  This means I need to restart the postmaster, but the server contains
many DBs, of which some may actually be in use. How can I tell postgres
that the database 'foo' should be marked as not in use / clear or drop
any open connections / etc?

  Thanks all!

Madi
