[postgis-users] Issues using PostGIS in other schema

Hi all,

I have issues using PostGIS after moving it to a different schema. In many
but not all cases I get a "function does not exist" error with a reference
to the public schema which isn't even on my search path.

I followed these steps to set up PostGIS:

docker run --name test -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=test -e POSTGRES_USER=test -e
POSTGRES_DATABASE=test -d mdillon/postgis
docker exec -it test /bin/bash
psql -U test test
create schema test;
alter schema test owner to test;
update pg_extension set extrelocatable = true where extname = 'postgis';
alter extension postgis set schema test;
set search_path = test;

I'm expecting to be able to use PostGIS at this point,
but postgis_full_version() for example fails with:

ERROR:  function public.postgis_lib_version() does not exist

This on the other hand works fine:

SELECT ST_SnapToGrid(
    ST_GeomFromEWKT('LINESTRING(-1.1115678 2.123 2.3456 1.11111,4.111111
3.2374897 3.1234 1.1111, -1.11111112 2.123 2.3456 1.1111112)'),
    ST_GeomFromEWKT('POINT(1.12 2.22 3.2 4.4444)'),
    0.1, 0.1, 0.1, 0.01);

But this (from the PostGIS docs as well) doesn't:

SELECT ST_SnapToGrid(
    ST_GeomFromText('LINESTRING(1.1115678 2.123, 4.111111 3.2374897,
4.11112 3.23748667)'),
    0.001);
ERROR:  function public.st_snaptogrid(geometry, integer, integer, double
precision, double precision) does not exist
LINE 1: SELECT public.ST_SnapToGrid($1, 0, 0, $2, $2)

Any thoughts?

Best regards
