PgAdmin refuses to let me create the new > DB, telling me "permission denied for tablespace pg_default". Are you trying to explicitly specify the tablespace? If you just let it default, it should work --- but if you name a tablespace you need CREATE permission on that tablespace, even if it happens to be the same one that would be the default choice. If PgAdmin is trying to specify a tablespace even when you didn't ask it to, that'd be a bug in PgAdmin IMHO. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
