[postgis-devel] PostGIS 2.1 "transaction control statements"

Sat Feb 9 09:45:50 PST 2013

If you compiled --without-raster then extensions should not have built at
all since they don't build without raster.

So that I suppose could be the problem.  if that is the case.  Please ticket
it.  The extension files shouldn't have even tried to build at all.

thanks,
Regina

select version() || ' ' || ' ' || postgis_full_version();

yields

PostgreSQL 9.1.7 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (Ubuntu/Linaro
4.7.2-2ubuntu1) 4.7.2, 64-bit  POSTGIS="2.1.0SVN r11081"
GEOS="3.4.0dev-CAPI-1.8.0 r3762" PROJ="Rel. 4.7.1, 23 September 2009"
LIBXML="2.8.0" LIBJSON="UNKNOWN"

Looking through my history, it was an SVN pull:

svn checkout http://svn.osgeo.org/postgis/trunk/ postgis-2.1.0SVN
cd postgis-2.1.0SVN/
./autogen.sh 
./configure --with-gui --with-topology
./configure --with-gui --without-raster --with-topology
make
make comments
make cheatsheets 
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
sudo make comments-install

:D  Looks like I was feeling my way around in the dark a bit there... .

Which version of trunk are you running with and where did you get it from:
Direct from svn or tar ball (and if tar ball what link)?

I just tried with Winnie's 9.2 latest Windows build built fresh whenever
there is a change and it installed fine creating a new postgis. Didn't try
9.1 though.

select version() || ' ' || ' ' || postgis_full_version();

If you are running an older -- its possible there was a temporary issue that
was fixed, though I'm not aware of one.  
In the make sed strips out all BEGIN COMMITS as well as a bunch of other
things that are illegal in extension scripts and replaces them with
equivalent extension commands.  It also adds additional helper functions it
uses during the process and then drops after.

Yes, the BEGIN and END are there.  So, how does it work?  In the MAKE of the
extension, sed is supposed to strip out all transaction statements, or this
just slipped into the SVN somehow?

Best,
Steve

I thought maybe you were having a sed issue that someone else complained
about, though they were on Mac and had to do with sed compatibility switch.

In your extension folder of your PostgreSQL install, 

If you open up postgis-2.1.0SVN.sql

Does it start with BEGIN and end with a COMMIT;?

If it does -- remove those.  The postgis extension build line:

sql_bits/postgis.sql: ../../postgis/postgis.sql
 sed -e 's/BEGIN;//g' -e 's/COMMIT;//g'  $< > $@

 should have done this but it sounds like it didn't for some reason.  

Those commands aren't legal in an extension script since the extension
machinery already wraps an extension in a transaction.

Hope that helps,
Regina

What version of sed do you have?

Hi All,

       Bounce me to users, if appropriate, but I have put together an SVN
build of PostGIS on Ubuntu 12.10 and postgresql 9.1, with GEOS 3.4.0dev.
All went well in the configure/make/make install mantra.  When I got to the
CREATE EXTENSION step I got the following cryptic message:

"transaction control statements are not allowed with an extension script"

I've had no problem loading PostGIS using the old method with sql scripts,
but thought I'd highlight this oddity in case it was useful and as yet
unreported.

Best,

Steve Mather
