You can create a partition on an existing table only if the existing table
is defined as a partitioned table, like this:

create table existing_table_name (...) partition by ....

Read more about how to create partitioned tables and their partitions at
the following documentation of CREATE TABLE:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/sql-createtable.html

By the way, this is not a bug, so pgsql-bugs(at)(dot)(dot)(dot) is not the list to ask
this. Next time, please send emails with such questions to
pgsql-general(at)lists(dot)postgresql(dot)org(dot) Also, read about which mailing lists
to use in different situations by reading their descriptions here:

Thanks,
Amit
