Dear Sirs:

Postgresql was installed normally from source code in Ubuntu Hardy Heron
with standard configuration.

But I receive a message "Permission denied" when trying to run a .sql script
to create tables
in a already created database. The script is located in /usr/local/pgsql

Any suggestions?

Session example:

root(at)tikal:/home/pakal# su - postgres
No directory, logging in with HOME=/

$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -U neil -d bpsimple
psql (8.4.4)
Type "help" for help.

bpsimple=#

bpsimple=# \i /usr/local/pgsql/create_tables-bpsimple.sql
/usr/local/pgsql/create_tables-bpsimple.sql: Permission denied
