[postgis-users] Postgis Installation Error

Wed Apr 6 13:02:22 PDT 2011

Hi frnds,

      I am using fedora machine. I want to install postgis on my system. So
this is what I have done

1. Installed Postgresql and supporting packages using YUM.
2. Created directory /sources to put all the necessary packages for postgis.
3. successfully installed geos,libxml & proj using ./config,make,make
install.
4. successfull in make & make install of postgis. But when I give "make
check" I am getting the following error(I have alreasy started the postgres
server):

 Something went wrong (no postgis installed in postgis_reg).
 For details, check /tmp/pgis_reg_5204/regress_log

6. Even with the error, i continued to create template_postgis db from
postgresql shell:
 On giving the command: psql template_postgis -U postgres
postgis/postgis.sql I am getting the folowing error:
