I am trying to install mongo_fdw on Ubuntu but I am getting some compilation errors. I have installed mongodb, postgresql 9.1, postgresql-server-dev and libpq-dev using apt-get.
I have updated the $PATH as instructed, cd to the directory with the mongo_fdw sources and typed make.
The code starts compiling but then I get errors (some objects and methods aren't found). What am I missing?
It's possible that the extension you're using expects the 9.2 version of the foreign data wrapper API, which has read/write support. Without details like exact errors it's impossible to say for sure.

I have a data ware house running on PostgreSQL and I would like to check what all are the missing indices are in my database.
I tried to install the extension pg_qualstats but it is giving the below error.
root#Ubuntu-1604-xenial-64-minimal ~ # sudo pip install pg_qualstats
Collecting pg_qualstats
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pg_qualstats (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for pg_qualstats
You are using pip version 18.1, however version 19.2.3 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.
root#Ubuntu-1604-xenial-64-minimal ~ #
So how can i install this extension? I tried the CREATE EXTENSION pg_qualstats but it was giving error.
Also is there any other database maintenance need to be done for the database regularly?
What all parameter I have to check?
Can we automate the maintenance activity?
I was a SQL server DB admin and it was much easier to find out the missing index, understand the execution plan, DB maintenance but I find it hard, when it comes to PostgreSQL.
So any guidance will be of great help.
I am only answering the immediate question regarding the installation of pg_qualstats - the rest of the questions are way too broad for a platform like stackoverflow (or dba.stackexchange).
Many interesting extensions are provided as source code in Postgres (that's one of the reasons why it's highly recommended to run Postgres on Linux, because compiling the extensions is way easier in Linux than it is on Windows, and may extensions are only developed for Linux).
pg_qualstats is no different.
It is provided together with PoWA and the installation of the extension is documented as part of their installation guide
In a nutshell:
Download the source:
wget https://github.com/powa-team/pg_qualstats/archive/1.0.7.tar.gz -O pg_qualstats-1.0.7.tar.gz
tar zxvf pg_qualstats-1.0.7.tar.gz
cd pg_qualstats-1.0.7
the compile it:
make
make install
Register the shared libraries by editing postgresql.conf and after restarting Postgres the extension can be created using CREATE EXTENSION pg_qualstats;
i tried to create extension for postgis in postgresql 9.5. I've already follow from here
But it doesn't work like i expected. I got error ERROR: could not load library "/usr/pgsql-9.5/lib/rtpostgis-2.2.so": libhdf5.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory when i execute CREATE EXTENSION postgis
I have had install this on my other machine which run ubuntu. But this machine using centos 6. am i missing something? please help.
Looks like the package you need is hdf5
There have been a fair number of problems reported with this library (a quick google search is helpful), but you may try making sure you can find libhdf5.so.6 on your system and if not reinstalling the rpm.
If that doesn't work, build the library from source or find an alternate version for download?
I'm having some problems with Postgres/PostGIS after rebuilding my GDAL library:(
I wanted to add MrSID support in GDAL so rebuilt it with the MrSID SDK. Everything compiled ok and I am now able to open Raster .sid files within QGIS.
BUT I seem to have screwed my Postgres 9.3 install as now I have no PostGIS support. If I try and open previously functioning postgis databases in QGIS I get a ton of error messages indicating that my database has no working PostGIS support.
When I look at my databases in PGADMIN3 I get the following error:
ERROR: could not load library "/usr/lib/postgresql/9.3/lib/postgis-2.1.so": /usr/lib/postgresql/9.3/lib/postgis-2.1.so: undefined symbol: GEOSHausdorffDistance
The postgis-2.1.so library is definitely present on my system and was working fie before I recompiled GDAL.
I'm running Ubuntu 13.10, Postgres 9.3, PostGIS 2.1, and GDAL 1.10.
This is how I compiled GDAL 1.10:
./configure --with-geos=yes --with-sqlite3 --with-python --with-spatialite --with-fgdb=/usr/local/FileGDB_API --with-postgres --with-odbc --with-curl=yes --with-mrsid=/usr/local/MrSID_DSDK/Raster_DSDK --with-mrsid_lidar=/usr/local/MrSID_DSDK/Lidar_DSDK --with-poppler=yes --with-jasper=yes --with-opencl=no --with-ogdi=no
Anyone have any idea how to fix this? Do I need to recompile Postgis against Gdal?!
Really appreciate any help with this for as usual I urgently need to use my postgis data!
Thanks
Marty
The simplest way was to just rebuild everything - thanks #joop
I'm trying to install plpython on a postgres server on a Windows machine. When I issue the command CREATE EXTENSION plpython3u; in postgres, I get the following error, which I'm trying to find the source of.
ERROR: could not load library "C:/Program Files/PostgreSQL/9.3/lib/plpython3.dll": The specified module could not be found.
This file exists, which I presume means that Windows can't find one of the files it depends on. When I open the plpython3.dll with Dependency Walker, it tells me it can't locate the GPSVC.dll.
Is it likely that this missing dll would cause the CREATE EXTENSION command to fail? I found a .dll with the same name in C:\Windows\System32 and copied it over to C:\Windows\SysWOW64, but this did not resolve the probelm, and although dependency walker now finds the .dll, it raises several other errors about having modules with different CPU types.
I know this is an old question, but thought I would post to save someone the headaches I went through trying to fix this...
I had the same error trying to add pl python using Postgres 9.5. Dependency walker showed that plpython3.dll was looking for python33.dll, so I installed python 3.3 and added the install directory into my path and that seems to have fixed the problem.
Use specific python version on Windows. I could get it running with python 3.2.x with postgres 9.3
Upon running rake db:test:prepare my test database was dropped, but failed to be rebuilt. After researching the errors, I simply attempted to load the database with rake db:test:load to repopulate based on the schema.rb file. That call resulted in the following message
PG::Error: ERROR: could not open extension control file "/usr/pgsql-9.1/share/extension/postgis.control": No such file or directory
I've spent the day reinstalling postgresql-9.1 and postGIS 1.5.3 on a test server in every way I can find on the internet, and none of those installations produce the ever-elusive postgis.control file. Is there a special install I need to run on a CentOS6 machine to produce the binary? Or is there another way to run the rake tasks to test the psql database?
This message is shown for CREATE EXTENSION postgis; however the newer extension method was introduced for PostGIS 2.0. The version that you have installed does not support this method.
Either upgrade to PostGIS 2.0 (excellent RPMs for YUM here), or spatially enable a PostGIS 1.5 database using either a template or using enabler scripts. Details here.
