Thread: pg_shadow problem

pg_shadow problem

I know this has been dealt with before, but I can't find the solution in the
archives....

I'm trying to start up 7.0.3 on NT/cygwin. I have it properly installed and I
type:

$ipc-daemon &
$postmaster -i &

So far so good, then
$psql -h localhost template1

But I get the error: FATAL 1: SetUserID: user 'larryb' is not in 'pg_shadow'

Any ideas?

I believe first you run as user postgres, after you created the user
larryb, you can login as larryb.
