You must own the schema to use <command>ALTER SCHEMA</command>.
|
|
To rename a schema you must also have the
|
|
<literal>CREATE</literal> privilege for the database.
|
|
To alter the owner, you must be able to <literal>SET ROLE</literal> to the
|
|
new owning role, and that role must have the
|
|
<literal>CREATE</literal> privilege for the database.
|
|
(Note that superusers have all these privileges automatically.)
