Дата:
I create a table named "Account_Text_Table" the owner is 'johnf'.

select has_table_privilege('johnf', 'public.Account_Text_Table', 'SELECT')
I get the following error:

ERROR:  relation "public.account_text_table" does not exist

SUSE 10.3 Postgres 8.1.9

PostgreSQL folds to lower case unless you put the name in double-quotes.
Try putting the table name in double-quotes.

E.g.: select has_table_privilege('johnf', 'public."Account_Text_Table"',
'SELECT')

That won't help if the table was not created with a quoted name.

test=# CREATE TABLE Account_Text_Table (foo CHAR(1));
CREATE TABLE

test=# SELECT * FROM Account_Text_Table;
  foo
-----
(0 rows)

test=# SELECT * FROM "Account_Text_Table";
ERROR:  relation "Account_Text_Table" does not exist

test=# DROP TABLE account_text_table;
DROP TABLE

test=# CREATE TABLE "Account_Text_Table" (foo CHAR(1));
CREATE TABLE

test=# SELECT * FROM Account_Text_Table;
ERROR:  relation "account_text_table" does not exist

test=# SELECT * FROM "Account_Text_Table";
  foo
-----
(0 rows)

So, you'll need to quote the table name when you create it. But this
means that you'll *always* have to quote references to it.

Easiest to stick with lowercase, IMO.
