[postgis-users] extra function?

[Bborie Park]

Hey Steve,

_st_summarystats is an underlying function that isn't meant for use by 
end-users.  ST_SummaryStats is what you should be using.

The example query you provided shouldn't have any issues and shouldn't 
be creating any of those messages.  In your situation, you don't even 
need the true::boolean.
