Re: cannot access directory /pg_tblspc/*

the error says (translated from spanish):
"it wasn't possible to access directory <<pg_tblspc/16388/16389>>:
permission denied."

The directory is mounted when the service is called, as I have tested
inserting some 'ls' statements before postmaster is called.

I think this is more a problem of user permissions. any idea?
