[postgis-users] Ubuntu and Postgresql9.1.3-2

[Jeff Meyer]

Hi Smaran - 

I can't speak to what went wrong during your install, but have you double-checked your ability to add extensions through pgAdmin III?
You should be able to open your db, navigate to extensions, right click on the extensions label, and then click "New Extension." If PostGIS isn't listed as a possible extension, then something went wrong in the PostGIS install. 

You may want to then do an 'apt-get remove postgis' and then follow the instructions at: http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/wiki/UsersWikiPostGIS20Ubuntu1204.
Thanks, Jeff

As Jeff said, installing on Ubuntu 12.04 using apt-get is easy, and I've only used stackbuilder once. You don't really need it.
