Thread: SELECT has_database_privilege('user01', 'db01', 'connect');

Hello %

I am kinda confused, if I miss something. I have two questions:

* A new created user should not have the connect privilege per default, if the user is not the owner of the db, right?
* The function has_database_privilege should return false, if I revoke the connect privilege, right?

(postgres@[local]:55042)[postgres]> CREATE USER user01 ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'user01';
CREATE ROLE
(postgres@[local]:55042)[postgres]> CREATE DATABASE db01 WITH OWNER = postgres;
CREATE DATABASE
(postgres@[local]:55042)[postgres]> SELECT has_database_privilege('user01', 'db01', 'connect');
 has_database_privilege
------------------------
 t                         <= have expected false here
(1 row)
(postgres@[local]:55042)[postgres]> REVOKE CONNECT ON DATABASE db01 FROM user01;
REVOKE
(postgres@[local]:55042)[postgres]> SELECT has_database_privilege('user01', 'db01', 'connect');
 has_database_privilege
------------------------
 t                         <= have expected false here even more after the revoke statement
(1 row)

Or do I have some misunderstanding in regards of how it should work?

Cheers,
William
