Public bug reported: Binary package hint: postgresql-8.2
pg_createcluster and friends (dropcluster) refuse to run as a non root user, even they already have permission to write to /etc/postgresql/8.2 and other necessary files. This will allow use of the tools by DBA's without root access, provided the relevant permissions have been set on /etc/postgresql/8.2. ** Affects: postgresql-8.2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- pg_createcluster should run if process has write access to /etc/postgresql/8.2 https://launchpad.net/bugs/90036 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
