That is the meaning that I meant to convey. The a rough outline of the sequent
of events respecting this was:
Install postgreqsl
Initialise database
su - postgres -c 'createuser -S -d -r -l -P adempiere'
Run install script which creates the application database.
The install script(s) required a number of iterations and some modifications to
get working on FreeBSD.
su idempiere -c" psql -d idempiere -U adempiere -c 'CREATE EXTENSION "uuid-ossp"'
At some point I decided to switch the name of the user owning the application
database from adempiere to idempiere-dbadmin. Probably this was done to align
the user names with our internal conventions. A decision which I strongly
suspect is at the root of this problem.
Following this decision I went through the entire modified install scripts
again, this time using the new username(s).
However, I did discover this:
2000 2020-09-11 16:15:17: psql -d idempiere -U adempiere -c 'CREATE EXTENSION
"uuid-ossp"'
2001 2020-09-11 16:17:08: su idempiere -c" psql -d idempiere -U adempiere -c
'CREATE EXTENSION "uuid-ossp"
I can only conjecture that I got confused at this point in the process and used
the admpiere username artifact from the initial install attempts instead of the
idempiere-admin username subsequently employed.
I realise that I am providing this information in a rather disjointed manner.
However the number of modifications and restarts I had to perform to get the
software to install rather confuses my memory and the history logs do not add
much in the way of clarity.
What I need to know now is how to correct this error.
