I am new at the Postgres DBA – Admin stuff. So when asked to create a read only profile for our database in Postgres 8.4 I did the following:
· create role RO_User password 'xxxxxxxxxxx' NOSUPERUSER NOCREATEDB NOCREATEROLE INHERIT LOGIN;
· select 'grant select on ' || tablename || ' to \"RO_User\"; 'from pg_tables where schemaname = 'public';
The commands worked fine. But when I connected as RO_User and did a select against a simple table in the DB, I got access denied on the table.
Can anyone point to my error?
