[postgis-users] PostGIS on Centos 7

Hi Bryan,

I didn't have any notes, but as I recall I followed the tips from Regina 
and Lars. The yum commands installed all dependencies.

In the past I've installed from source, which required installing a 
bunch of dependencies first. The community packages took all the 
headache out of this.

-P.

Our OS admins prefer RH, but we switched that all out a year ago to OEL to save money on maintenance costs. We have other PostgreSQL databases running on it, but this is the first PostGIS enabled db. I plan to publish a step-by-step list when it finally all works.

Of course easier said than done since that also includes the rewrite all the stored procedures, modification of any spotfire reports, repointing FME and UC4 jobs, and having it all working in production with the corporate ESRI software by this time next year. Should be an adventure...

As they say, close but no cigar. Possibly because of version differences, but I'm not sure as this is the first time I've tried to do it from scratch.
