Do these actually work? I've always used 'default now()'...

If you want to avoid this, then create your sequences manually instead of
using 'serial'.

\echo '* datasources'

create sequence "datasources_id_seq"
start 1
increment 1
maxvalue 9223372036854775807
minvalue 1
cache 1;

comment on sequence "datasources_id_seq" is 'Datasources ID';

create table "datasources" (
"id" integer not null unique default nextval
('datasources_id_seq'),
"name" varchar(32) not null unique,
"type_id" varchar(16) not null,
primary key ("id")
);

comment on table "datasources" is 'Datasource Definition';

This also gives you more flexibility since you can change the parameters of
the sequence (oftentimes I use start 0 minvalue 0, instead), and you can use
a name of your own choice. The settings shown are the default when you use
'serial'.

> ERROR: permission denied for schema pg_catalog

The user you create the user as needs to have createuser permission.

select * from "pg_catalog"."pg_user";

...will show you all that you need to know.

alter user "foo" with createuser;

...(run as an appropriate user) will grant the user such permission.

Vertu sæll,
