Solved.
Here is the procedure to get working with plpython ucs2 or ucs4 error. By
default python uses ucs2 and we have to change it to ucs4.
compile python2.7 or 3 with options as below.
./configure --enable-unicode=ucs4
then use
make and make altinstall
then use the python path for postgresql source configuration within
postgresql source directory
./configure --with-python PYTHON=/usr/local/bin/python2.7 (replace with your
python installation path)
then use
make and make install-world
Copy the plpython.so, plpython2.so or plpython3.so from local postgresql
install directory (normally /usr/local/pgsql/lib) to the required
installtion lib directory.
make proper local links to files if required.
start the postgresql
with a database create a new language as plpythonu, plpython2u or plpython3u
as required.
create a simple function as below to test plpython working
CREATE or replace FUNCTION pyver() RETURNS text
LANGUAGE plpythonu
AS $$
import sys
#return sys.version
return sys.path
$$;
if it shown the version then check it with your newly installed alternative
python version. Also check path from function and from python. If both
matches then you can use plpython properly.
