Log in as the superuser (usually postgres) and see what you get from this query: select usesuper from pg_shadow where usename='test'; if usesuper is t, then test is a superuser and can do anything he wants. You need to issue the command: alter user test with nocreateuser; If that isn't the problem, let us know. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
