 This can be verified by examining the dump for ALTER TABLE statements which set OWNER TO that username:

 It can be worked around by changing the username to `synapse`, for example by using `sed`:
 
 ```Shell

+$ sed -i "s/OWNER TO synapse_user;/OWNER TO synapse;/g" homeserver.sql

-This uses sed to perform an 'in-place' (`-i`) replacement globally (`/g`), searching for `synapse user` and replacing with `synapse` (`s/synapse_user/synapse`). If your database username was different, change `synapse_user` to that username instead.

Expand search/replace statement as shown in example above, in case of old user name like `matrix` - replacing `matrix` only would... well - you can imagine.
 
 Note that if the previous import failed with an error it may have made changes which are incompatible with re-running the import task right away; if you do so it may fail with an error such as:
