[postgis-users] PostGIS: make check works, but I can't manually create a spatial database
Hi, I've just installed PostgreSQL 8.4.2, Proj 4.6.1, GEOS 3.2.0 (CAPI 1.6.0), libxml 2.7.6, and PostGIS 1.5.0 on an Amazon EC2 instance running the 64-bit version of Fedora 8. (I compiled using GCC 4.1.2.) After installing PostGIS, I ran make check and that was successful. When I try to create a spatial database (e.g., psql -d geodb -f postgis.sql), however, it doesn't work. I get numerous errors that look as follows: psql:postgis.sql:7739: ERROR: current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end of transaction block ROLLBACK psql:postgis.sql:7744: NOTICE: aggregate geomunion(geometry) does not exist, skipping My understanding is that make check creates a spatial database using the postgis.sql script, which is essentially what I'm trying to do manually. So, I'm a bit confused... Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Cheers, Petrus ___ postgis-users mailing list postgis-users@postgis.refractions.net http://postgis.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/postgis-users
