How do I access JIRA 4.3.2 tables in jiradb database on postgresql 8.3?

[Indra Gunawan]

I need to do the following to add the "admin" account the Global Administrators of JIRA permission:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA052/Retrieving+the+JIRA+Administrator

However, I kept getting "No relations found." doing \dt.  Shouldn't the "public" schema has the JIRA tables?

bash-3.2$ id
uid=863(postgres) gid=25(eng) groups=25(eng)
bash-3.2$ psql -U jirauser -d jiradb -W
Password for user jirauser:
Welcome to psql 8.3.23, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.

This seems rather confused about what you're doing.

Relations (and hence \dt) are completely irrelevant here.  You need to go into the JIRA database, read some tables to find out what JIRA users to change, and then update tables to update their access.  Nothing to do with database users (other than you need to log into the database with a database user who has select, insert and update in the JIRA database)
