Appreciate it, David! Disconnect and reconnect works. I don’t have luck with “set search_path”.
Thanks,

Hello, my friends, I am configuring PostGIS for the database restore. I ran the following sequence successfully on a brand new database yesterday afternoon:
CREATE SCHEMA postgis;
ALTER DATABASE dz5 SET search_path="$user", public, postgis,topology;
GRANT ALL ON SCHEMA postgis TO public;
CREATE EXTENSION postgis WITH SCHEMA postgis;
CREATE EXTENSION postgis_topology;
However, I got the following error when it get to “CREATE EXTENSION postgis_topology;” step today:
ERROR: type "geometry" does not exist
Any thoughts? Has any one of you experienced this before?
You've altered the database default search_path but haven't actually changed it in the active session. You either need to do "set search_path" or, after the alter database, disconnect and reconnect to the database.
