Yeah, I know that, but this doesn't look quite right. I mean to say
whatever we want to say via this message is correct, but I am not
completely happy with the display part. How about something like:
"pgbench_accounts is missing, you need to do initialization (\"pgbench
-i\") in database \"%s\"\n"? Feel free to propose something else on
similar lines? If possible, I want to convey this information in a single
sentence.
How about, "pgbench_accounts is missing, initialize (\"pgbench -i\") in
database \"%s\"\n"?
I think that we should not presume too much about the solution: perhaps
the user did not specify the right database or host and it has nothing to
do with initialization.
Maybe something like:
"pgbench_accounts is missing, perhaps you need to initialize (\"pgbench
-i\") in database \"%s\"\n"
The two sentences approach has the logic of "error" and a separate "hint"
which is often used.
