cannot create extension without superuser role

Question

I\'m trying to run unit tests in Django, and it creates a new database. The database has postgis extensions and when I regularly create the database, I use \"CREATE ExTENSIO

Answer 1

The Django documentation on postgis has some information on setting up user privileges.

In the worst case you can create a new superuser:

$ createuser --superuser 

or alter an existing user's role:

postgres# ALTER ROLE  SUPERUSER;
