Howdy,

I'm trying to drop a user but getting the following error:

dropuser: error: removal of role "dalec" failed: ERROR:  role "dalec"
cannot be dropped because some objects depend on it
DETAIL:  262 objects in database csbtest

I have run queries to check for ownership on tables, views, sequences,
materialized views, functions, and schemas.  All return 0 (zero) rows.

Could anyone provide any advice here, please?

Thank you,

Sam
