I wrote a script that creates a new database from an existing backup. Works great on my machine. Another user tries to use it and sees the following output from initdb:

could not change directory to "/root"
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres".
This user must also own the server process.
.
.

Why is it trying to change directory to /root??? Running as the postgres user.

Any assistance would be appreciated.
