The -U option doesn't seem to be working in the expected manner. You could use sudo to get around this: - # Iff the createuser command failed: sudo -u postgres createuser -U postgres -d -P dspace # and then: sudo -u dspace createdb -U dspace -E UNICODE dspace (The -U options ought to be redundant if you do it this way).
