Vague handwaving like that is an excellent way to guarantee that nobody
can help you, because we can't figure out what you did wrong (or, maybe,
what the code did wrong) based on this. We need to see exactly what
commands you gave and what results you got. Please read

(In general, though, in PG 9.1 you do not source contrib SQL scripts
directly. CREATE EXTENSION is the way to install a contrib module into
a database.)
