Hi!
I'm a new member and new to postgres.
beside postgrest user I would also want my student to create their own
database in their own home directory.
first I issue (under postgrest user)
createuser user_id
then under that user_id I run
initlocation ~/sql/data
then I run
createdb -D ~/sql/data mydb
at this stage I get an error msg as below:
ERROR: Unable to create database directory ~/sql/data/base/mydb
createdb: database creation failed on mydb.
what should I do now? I tried to find it in archives but i can't find it.
FYI I'm using postgres v 6.3 running under RedHat.
Thanks in advance.
