[postgis-users] Problems with installing postgis in windows

[Regina Obe]

I'm thinking about how many people get bitten by this.

 

Would it help if I put –edb or something like that in the installer name?

 

The binaries should work fine with BigSQL though aside from the paths, but I
figured most people using BigSQL would be using the BigSQL postgis binaries
so no need to create a batch script for it or anything aside from a cursory
explanation.

 

Thanks,

Regina

Sorry it works now, I had used postgres “BIGSQL”, not  EDB installation!

Hi,

I’ve tried to install Postgis for windows
(postgis-bundle-pg11x64-setup-2.5.1-1.exe) with PostgreSQL11.

But I receive this message at the end of the installation:

ERROR:  could not open extension control file
"C:/POSTGR~1/pg11/../pg11/share/postgresql/extension/postgis.control": No
such file or directory

 

Then I down loaded the zip file and copied the postgis.control to this
directory and tried to install again.

 

This time I got this error message instead at the end of the installation:

ERROR:  extension "postgis" has no installation script nor update path for
version "2.5.1"

 

Has anyone any idea what I’m doing wrong?

 

Kind regards,

Paul
