Error creating Tablespace on Windows

От

Hi,

I am getting this permission denied error on Windows 2008 trying to create a tablespace.

template1=# create tablespace testtablespace location 'c:/windows/temp1/testtablespace';
ERROR:  could not set permissions on directory "c:/windows/temp1/testtablespace": Permission denied


If I use 'c:/windows/temp/testtablespace' for location, it works.

If I look at properties for c:/windows/temp and c:/windows/temp1, they look identical (same ownership and read/write permissions).

Any thoughts on what else to check?

This is with Postgresql 9.1.9.

why are you putting database tables in the Windows directory?!?   I
would instead put them somewhere like

C:\Users\postgres\AppData\Local\Temp   (assuming C:\Users\postgres is
the %USERPROFILE% directory for the postgres service owner...)

I chose temp only for illustration purposes.  Actually the regression test "tablespace" fails too,
for the same reason, when run from sources (which creates a tablespace directory under
src/test/regress)

The above query used to work for me. May be you should make sure to use the appropriate owner.

CREATE TABLESPACE workspace1 OWNER postgres LOCATION 'E:\\TempFiles\\pgsqlData';
