[postgis-devel] Windows Installer Issue

[Regina Obe]

Thanks for reporting.  I’ll have to take a look at that.  I was ignoring that one since I didn’t choose to override my env variable.

That setting is used for some raster processing and ogr_fdw.  That could explain the errors I see with ogr_fdw character conversions.

 

If you aren’t using raster or ogr_fdw you can ignore it.

If you are using raster I don’t think it can be entirely ignored.  I think it’s used for raster transformations.  Ogr_fdw maybe.  I’ll ticket as an issue and troubleshoot.

 

I’m guessing it has to do with the newer GDAL version and maybe our logic is looking for a file that is no longer present in the gdal-data folder as they did change the contents of gdal-data folder significantly between 2.4 and 3.

 

Thanks,

Regina

Hi guys

 

I am using the latest installer for PG 13, and everything installs correctly.  However when I do a select postgis_full_version(), I see the following:

 

POSTGIS="3.0.2 3.0.2" [EXTENSION] PGSQL="130" GEOS="3.8.1-CAPI-1.13.3" SFCGAL="1.3.8" PROJ="6.3.2" GDAL="GDAL 3.0.4, released 2020/01/28 GDAL_DATA not found" LIBXML="2.9.9" LIBJSON="0.12" LIBPROTOBUF="1.2.1" WAGYU="0.4.3 (Internal)" TOPOLOGY RASTER

 

GDAL DATA however points to correct location in environment settings.  Nowhere in environment settings including path is there another GDAL DATA setting.

 

select long_name from st_gdaldrivers() however shows results.

 

Can I ignore this?
