If so, I'd agree that this error message is insufficiently specific, but I don't think the restriction is unreasonable. Without CREATE privs, there's no particular value in setting default privs for to-be-created objects. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
