Hi everyone, I just installed Postgres and pg_tle extension as I was

Somehow, I am unable to update the shared_preload_libraries. It feels like
ALTER has happened but the SPL value is not updated:

test=# show shared_preload_libraries;
shared_preload_libraries
--------------------------

(1 row)

test=# ALTER SYSTEM SET shared_preload_libraries TO 'pg_tle';
ALTER SYSTEM
test=# SELECT pg_reload_conf();

test=# show shared_preload_libraries;

(1 row)

test=#

I'm unable to open the postgresql.conf file to update it either. I provided

the correct macbook password above. But it is not accepted! :/

rajanx@b0be835adb74 postgresql % cat
/usr/local/pgsql/data/postgresql.auto.conf
cat: /usr/local/pgsql/data/postgresql.auto.conf: Permission denied

rajanx@b0be835adb74 postgresql % su cat

/usr/local/pgsql/data/postgresql.auto.conf

su: Sorry

The issue is related with permissions, please make sure which user did the
installation and update the postgresql.auto.conf file with that user
permissions.

Changing shared_preload_libraries requires a postmaster restart,
not just config reload. The postmaster log would have told you
that, but pg_reload_conf() can't really see the effects of its
signal.

It seems you're trying to use the su command to switch to another user
to read a file, but the su command is not the appropriate command for
this purpose on macOS.

If you want to read a file located in another user's directory, and
you have the necessary permissions to access that file, you can simply
use the cat command without su. Here's how you can do it:
