Thanks Andrew for the updated patches.
Here, I am attaching a delta patch which solves the errors for the
already created database and we need to reset some flags also. Please
have a look over this delta patch and merge it.
If we want to skip errors for connected user (CREATE ROLE username),
then we need to handle it by comparing sql commands in
process_global_sql_commands function or we can compare errors after
executing it.
delta_0002* patch is doing some handling but this is not a proper fix.
I think we can merge delta_0001* and later, we can work on delta_0002.
Yes, delta 1 looks OK, except that the pstrdup() calls are probably
unnecessary. Delta 2 needs some significant surgery at least. I think we
can use it as at least a partial fix, to avoid trying to create the role
we're running as (Should use PQuser() for that rather than cparams.user).
BTW, if you're sending delta patches, make sure they don't have .patch
extensions. Otherwise, the CFBot gets upset. I usually just add .noci to
the file names.
cheers
andrew
