Nobody said any such thing. My point was that permissions and ownership both have to be looked at. The Debian situation is that there are symlinks in $PGDATA pointing at root-owned files, and those files are (we think) also used by other services; so Magnus' point was that you'd probably better copy those files not modify their ownership/permissions in situ. 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
