I don't get it. I grant all privileges on a database to a role, but
the server won't let it access the schemas. I grant all privileges on
the schema to the same role, but the server won't let it access the
relations in the schema.
GRANT ALL ON DATABASE testdb TO myuser
GRANT ALL ON SCHEMA testschema TO myuser;
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
TIA,
t.n.a.
