Hi Steve,

Did you reload the lwpostgis.sql file into your database after you
recompiled with GEOS? What does SELECT postgis_full_version() give you? Does
it mention GEOS?

Also if you are using Mapserver, then it is worth making a deliberate error
in your DATA statement so that Mapserver generates an error. You can then
copy the SQL generated from Mapserver into a psql session and experiment
further there.


Kind regards,

Mark.
