| Summary | 0007722: installing merchant from debian package: fail db init | ||||
| Description | Following the configuration script of taler-merchant. [1] failed with database not found (wit the name of the user) [2] after creating this database (which is wrong) ended up with another database error This is a plain debian machine. The configuration script starts like this, error at the end: Configuring taler-merchant -------------------------- The taler-merchant package must have a database installed and configured before it can be used. This can be optionally handled with dbconfig-common. If you are an advanced database administrator and know that you want to perform this configuration manually, or if your database has already been installed and configured, you should refuse this option. Details on what needs to be done should most likely be provided in /usr/share/doc/taler-merchant. Otherwise, you should probably choose this option. Configure database for taler-merchant with dbconfig-common? [yes/no] yes ------ Errors: [1] creating database merchant_db: failed. error encountered creating database: psql: error: FATAL: database "root" does not exist [2] creating database merchant_db: success. verifying database merchant_db exists: success. populating database via scriptfile... psql:<stdin>:1: ERROR: database "pgsql" does not exist 2023-02-23T22:39:10.056024+0000 pq-10470 ERROR Database connection to 'postgres:///merchant_db' failed: FATAL: role "taler-merchant-httpd" does not exist | ||||

I only get populating database via scriptfile... psql:<stdin>:1: ERROR: database "pgsql" does not exist with the current package, and it *seems* harmless. As I wrote, likely somewhere we confuse dbtype and dbname. |

The bug is located at: https://git.taler.net/merchant.git/tree/debian/db/install/pgsql LINE: 20 (after the pipe) Explanation: If you are not logged as the "postgres" user, you cannot grant permissions.

Well, we are logging in as 'postgres' via the sudo. But we give the wrong DB name to postgres, so this is indeed clearly the line with the bug! Fixed in d01499cf..1cd6752f |
