Just to let you know, third time's a charm... I reinstalled PostgreSQL and PostGIS and it didn't error when re-installing this time. I can now buffer my geometries. phew<br><br>Thank you for the quick response Nicklas, it's very reassuring to know that people are ready to help so quickly.<br><br>Rebecca<br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Tue, 28 Sep 2010 15:30:44 +0200<br>From: nicklas.aven@jordogskog.no<br>To: postgis-users@postgis.refractions.net<br>CC: <br>Subject: Re: [postgis-users] geos proj stats modules all=v.1<br><br>

<div align="left">I get the same answer for postgis_version()</div>
<div align="left">I just tells that postgis is compiled with geos and proj</div>

<div align="left">try postgis_full_version instead, what do you get then?</div>

Hi,<br>

>I have recently tried installing postgesql 8.4 with PostGIS 1.5 ( now clean installs with v 1.4 instead ) onto to separate machines using the windows installer. I have only now realised that the buffer function is not available, despite being in the functions list. I checked the postgis_version() and the result was "1.4 USE_GEOS=1 USE_PROJ=1 USE_STATS=1".<br>

>The last time I installed this at work the correct geos module etc were installed. I have looked around and I can't find anything to say how I can manually change this. I believe it should be looking at the corrrect library as I found in the bin folder the libgeos-3-2-0.dll, libgeos_c-1.dll, libproj.dll files, but I don't know anything about them or how they are being referenced, other thatn one says 3.2 on it. I have tried looking for a postgis_config file, but I don't think that is something available to windows users(?)<br>
