      <div>I had a similar issue.  If you look at your list of functions
        (say through pgAdmin), you'll probably see multiple instances of
        that function.  If the same function is listed more than once,
        with the same number and type of arguments, then it will (I
        think?) report as not unique.  In that case, I manually deleted
        the duplicate functions, and then added them back.  To add them
        back, look inside the rt_postgis.sql (or postgis.sql) file than
        comes with the distribution (I'm using alpha5).  you'll see all
        of the functions in there.  Just cut and paste the necessary
        CREATE OR REPLACE statements for your functions into the Query
        Tool or psql console window.  </div>

            I know enough to do my own testing and make the necessary

                Interesting. Can you run the following and try again?<br>

                    Hey Steve,<br>
                    <br>
                    _st_summarystats is an underlying function that
                    isn't meant for use by<br>
                    end-users. ST_SummaryStats is what you should be
                    using.<br>
                    <br>
                    The example query you provided shouldn't have any
                    issues and shouldn't<br>
                    be creating any of those messages. In your
                    situation, you don't even<br>
                    need the true::boolean.<br>

                      Should I have both _st_summarystats and
                      st_summarystats in my<br>
                      database?<br>
                      I get messages like "function not unique" and

                      true::boolean) FROM spring_ms WHERE
                      observation_date = '2012-02-20';<br>
