Hello Martin,

Yes, SHOW search_path show this
"$user",public .

Oh yes, I get it now, the "$user" will take priority.

Another question, this public schema, in the usual practice way, do you delete it or just leave it there and create your own schema?

Regards
Louis

Hello Louis

SHOW search_path

if public is not on search_path or does'nt come first then
SET search_path TO public,$user;

Hello,

I did a migration from 8.2.4 to 8.2.5, I used pg_dumpall to backup all the db and then restore it into 8.2.5. In my 8.2.4 db, I don't have public schema (it was dropped when I create the db, so only myschema is there), but when I restore to 8.2.5, I found that it created a public schema for me. So why it doing this for me? I thought it should restore back excatly the same what I backup from 8.2.4?

Should I just let the public schema there? Will it cause any problem? In the postgres doc http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/interactive/ddl-schemas.html (5.7.2) it said if I create a table without specify any schema name, it will put it into public schema, so I test it in my case, but it not doing it, the table is create under myschema, strange. And I check the search_path, it show "$user",public .

Could someone explain it to me?

Thanks
Louis
