[postgis-users] help setting up postgis

[Edward Mac Gillavry]

Simply check the proper location of the  postgis.sql file. It should be in the directory where you installed postgis.

$ sudo updatedb
$ locate "postgis.sql"

/usr/src/postgis-1.5.1/postgis/postgis.sql

psql -d postgisdb -f /usr/src/postgis-1.5.1/postgis/postgis.sql
