Hello all,

I am using PostgreSQL 16.4. I tried to set up logical replication with
"postgres" user and all worked fine. Then I created a new user
(my_replication) to be used for the purpose and couldn't figure out which
privileges are necessary. Initially I got an error like "ERROR: permission
denied for database mydb" . So I used GRANT CREATE ON DATABASE..and that
error disappeared. I have also executed...
ALTER USER my_replication WITH replication;
GRANT usage ON SCHEMA public TO my_replication;
GRANT SELECT ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA public TO my_replication;
When I try
CREATE PUBLICATION my_publication for table public.term;
I am getting an error
ERROR: must be owner of table term

What privileges should be granted so that I can do
CREATE PUBLICATION my_publication FOR TABLES IN SCHEMA public;

Regards,
Jayadevan
