Re: BUG #14009: pg_restore not restoring privilegs when one login/group role is missing - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

I need the -d to specify the target database, without it restore is made to
the current user which in my case was "postgres".

moving -d to psql worked fine :

pg_restore /var/lib/pgsql/data/dumps/stgsample01_schema.dump | psql -d
stgsample05



---- On SERVER_5 ----

-- transfer dump from server 1

-- sample_read_role not created on purpose

CREATE ROLE sample_write_role
  NOSUPERUSER INHERIT NOCREATEDB NOCREATEROLE NOREPLICATION;

CREATE ROLE stgsamplelogin01 LOGIN
  ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'md5ea60c5e12ef0bd0e1344eb53e0078a67'
  NOSUPERUSER INHERIT NOCREATEDB NOCREATEROLE NOREPLICATION;
GRANT sample_write_role TO stgsamplelogin01;

CREATE DATABASE stgsample05
  WITH OWNER = stgsamplelogin01

       LC_COLLATE = 'en_US.UTF-8'
       LC_CTYPE = 'en_US.UTF-8'
       CONNECTION LIMIT = 20;
