Strange Grant behavior in postgres 8.3

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

 



Version:
PostgreSQL 8.3.5 on i486-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc-4.3.real
(Debian 4.3.2-1) 4.3.2

I have a DB "foo" created and owned by postgres.

No I created another role called "bar" and with the user postgres in
the db foo I did:

#> grant all on foo to bar;

when I select from pg_database I can see the correct line

bar=CTc/postgres for the db foo

I login with user bar to foo

$ psql -U bar -h localhost foo

but I cannot select anything from any table.

Now the strange part.

I grant to one table only a all privileges
#> grant all on table nodes to bar

$> \z nodes
 Schema | Name  | Type  |                 Access privileges
--------+-------+-------+---------------------------------------------------
 public | nodes | table | {postgres=arwdxt/postgres,foo=arwdxt/postgres}

and then the user bar could read from all tables.

What am I doing wrong? Or where can I look if I missed something
