PostgreSQL version: 9.6.6
Operating system: x86_Linux 64 bits, compiled by gcc 4.8.2 20140120
Description:
I am using PostgreSQL DB hosted on AWS. I am trying to use fuzzy logic,
enabled its extension successfully. But running the fussy match Query gives
me an exception. Also verified, the extension is already enabled but still,
Query failed.
**Query used to enable extension** - CREATE EXTENSION pg_trgm;
**DB version details** - PostgreSQL 9.6.6 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled
by gcc (GCC) 4.8.2 20140120 (Red Hat 4.8.2-16), 64-bit
**Query for fuzzy match** - SELECT first_name FROM contact WHERE first_name
% 'Eve' LIMIT 10;
**Error message -** SQL Error [42883]: ERROR: operator does not exist:
character varying % unknown
Hint: No operator matches the given name and argument type(s). You might
need to add explicit type casts.
