Hello,
I have been playing with postgresql at home, working through a book on general database installation and use. Mostly it is an oracle book, but much of the book is easily translated to Postgres. This is on a fedora core 2 linux box, kept fully yum updated.
Here are the packages installed via yum:
$ rpm -qa | grep postgres postgresql-libs-7.4.2-1 postgresql-server-7.4.2-1 postgresql-test-7.4.2-1 postgresql-7.4.2-1 postgresql-devel-7.4.2-1
Then I enable plpgsql:
$ droplang plpgsql template1 $ createlang plpgsql template1 $ createlang -l template1 Procedural Languages Name | Trusted? ---------+---------- plpgsql | yes
As user postgres I try and run the tests:
$ pwd /usr/lib/pgsql/test/regress $ time ./pg_regress.sh --schedule=parallel_schedule ... ==================================================== 6 of 93 tests failed, 1 of these failures ignored. ==================================================== ...
$ grep -i FAIL ./regression.out
test create_function_1 ... FAILED
triggers ... FAILED
plpgsql ... failed (ignored)
copy2 ... FAILED
rangefuncs ... FAILED
test stats ... FAILEDHere are some results from the diffs:
$ grep ERROR regression.diffs

$ grep HINT regression.diffs
+ HINT: You need to use "createlang" to load the language into the database.
...
So I guess I am confused. I thought I added the required language (plpgsql) properly. Sorry if this is something obvious, I have googled several times and have not found much help for this.
Perhaps I should be building from source or using the RedHat "rhdb" iso?
Thanks for any hints, John
