[postgis-users] WKT Raster - geos version error while running rtpostgis.sql

[Paragon Corporation]

Tyler,

It just occurred to me that you can build GDAL with geos dependency and
since WKT Raster depends on GDAL, it might be your libgdal.so that is at
fault. Though I would expect eh error to be different.

Do you remember how you built libgdal?  Since you had an older GEOS, maybe
you are just using an existing compiled libgdal compiled against an older
GEOS.

I'm not sure what happens in that case if libgdal is compiled with an older
GEOS than you compiled WKT Raster with.

Hope that helps,
Regina

Yes, while building PostGIS I specified that it should use geos 3.2.2.  Here
is the relevant output from the postgis ./configure step:

 -------------- Dependencies -------------- 
  GEOS config:          /usr/local/geos/3.2.2/bin/geos-config
  GEOS version:         3.2.2
  PostgreSQL config:    /usr/bin/pg_config
  PostgreSQL version:   PostgreSQL 8.4.4
  PROJ4 version:        47
  Libxml2 config:       /usr/bin/xml2-config
  Libxml2 version:      2.7.5
  PostGIS debug level:  0

I also checked that when I request the postgis version from the template
database I created, it lists geos 3.2.2

psql -d $WKTRASTER_TEMPLATE -c "SELECT POSTGIS_FULL_VERSION()"
                                         postgis_full_version
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------
POSTGIS="1.5.1" GEOS="3.2.2-CAPI-1.6.2" PROJ="Rel. 4.7.1, 23 September 2009"
LIBXML="2.7.5" USE_STATS

As a work around, I included libgeos-3.2.0.so in my list of shared
libraries. Once this was done, the rtpostgis.sql script ran without an
error.  But I still don't know why it requires geos 3.2.0.
