That's supposed to happen. It sets the permissions on the data directory and then recurses back up to the root directory, ensuring the postgres account is able to read all the parent directories - otherwise, even if it has write permissions on the data directory itself, it cannot access it. -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
