Just a random thought here. Did you accidentally install PostGIS in a schema other than public? If so, is that schema on the search_path of the user you are using to connect within GeoServer?

Do you get the same answer when you do this from psql or PgAdminIII?
postgis=# select public.extent('POINT(0 0)');
    extent
--------------
 BOX(0 0,0 0)
(1 row)


Cheers,
Kevin

        Thanks for the response, mmm I am using Geoserver (version1.7.2)
        , and when I try to create the featureType "polygon", it is
        complaining about

        class org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: function
        extent(geometry) does not exist

        shouldn't PostGIS  have some backword support for the extent
        function?

        thanks!

    Hi Giri,

    There has been talk of removing the old non-ST prefix functions from
    PostGIS, but so far this hasn't happened. Perhaps you need to check
    your installation?



    HTH,

    Mark.
