postgresql - 如何从 PostgreSQL 中删除模板数据库？

Question

postgres=# DROP DATABASE template_postgis;
ERROR:  cannot drop a template database

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/manage-ag-templatedbs.html让它看起来像如果我设置template_postgis.datistemplate = false，我就可以删除它，但我不知道如何设置.

Answer 1

postgres=# UPDATE pg_database SET datistemplate='false' WHERE datname='template_postgis';
UPDATE 1
postgres=# DROP DATABASE template_postgis;
DROP DATABASE
postgres=# 

Answer 2

您可以使用alter database 命令。比破坏元数据更简单、更安全。

postgres=# create database tempDB is_template true;
CREATE DATABASE
postgres=# drop database tempDB;
ERROR:  cannot drop a template database
postgres=# alter database tempDB is_template false;
ALTER DATABASE
postgres=# drop database tempDB;
DROP DATABASE
postgres=#
