[postgis-users] PostgreSQL/PostGIS x64 Error on PostGIS Install

Thanks, Regina.

After uninstalling, I tried a fresh install of PostgreSQL followed by a
fresh install of PostGIS. The difference this time is that I did not use the
existing data structure and started with a new one. The installation went
well and without error.

I uninstalled then repeated the above process with my existing data
structure and got the same error as before. The data structure was created
using the 32 bit version of PostgreSQL/PostGIS:
postgresql-9.1.3-1-windows.exe (Not 9.1.4).

Is there an incompatibility between 64 bit and 32 bit data structures? Any
pointers appreciated.

Many thanks.

Regards,

Donald

Donald,
This is extremely odd.  Seems like its breaking when its trying to compile
the topology addtosearchpath function  as you are getting compiled function
gibberish it seems.

That function is in postgis_topology, so what you could do is just use the
binaries (you might not even need to as the files would have installed
already).


Try installing postgis in a new database with 

CREATE EXTENSION postgis;


I haven't done a fresh install of PostGIS against 9.1.4 so can't be sure if
its an issue in 9.1.4 release or not.

Hope that helps,
Regina
