allow empty database to exist so I don't have to give database creation permission to rearview user about rearview HOT 3 CLOSED

I think it just gives you a warning? Or does it actually fail?

from rearview.

Looks like just a warning. I first noticed when I was having other troubles, so this part is just an annoyance. If I create a rearview user and empty rearview_production db ahead of time, I get

ActiveRecord::JDBCError: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: permission denied to create database: CREATE DATABASE "rearview_production" ENCODING =
'utf8'
arjdbc/jdbc/RubyJdbcConnection.java:537:in `execute'
....
bin/rake:4:in `(root)'
Couldn't create database for {"adapter"=>"postgresql", "database"=>"rearview_production", "username"=>"rearview", "password"=>"rearview", "host"=>"localhost"}

But the migrate and seed works fine. It is mainly pissed off that the rearview used doesn't have permission to create a db, but one is already created for it so it does not matter.

I think its probably better to leave the warning (it comes from rails anyways), then try and spend time suppressing it. I guess I'd rather have some noise than take the chance that I accidentally swallow some warning or error messages that might be useful to others for debugging setup.
