Re: GRANT ALL ON TO GROUP failure

You need to user is a reserved word so you need to quote it (ie:
"user" rather than user) whenever you reference it.Does group reader exist?
If it does then it might be a case issue as presumably you must have quoted
user user to create it which also preserves case, so if you did the same for
group reader and included any caps reader will need to be quoted and in the
same case.
