Re: plperl and plperlu language extentsions

Thanks for responding!

I installed Postgres 10 from the PG repos. I believe the system came with Postgres 9.2 on it but I never used that. Postgres 10 is first in the path.

Hi,

I am running postgres 10.4 on CentOS 7.5. I am having trouble getting the plperl language extension going :

netdrms02.nispdc.nso.edu:5432 <http://netdrms02.nispdc.nso.edu:5432> postgres@nsocu=# CREATE EXTENSION plperl;
ERROR:  58P01: could not open extension control file "/usr/pgsql-10/share/extension/plperl.control": No such file or directory
LOCATION:  parse_extension_control_file, extension.c:494

Sure enough that file is not there :

[production@netdrms02 ~]$ ls /usr/pgsql-10/share/extension/
plpgsql--1.0.sql  plpgsql.control  plpgsql--unpackaged--1.0.sql


Yet plperl would seem to be installed :

# yum list | grep postgres | grep perl
postgresql-plperl.x86_64                  9.2.23-3.el7_4               base
postgresql10-plperl.x86_64                10.4-1PGDG.rhel7              pgdg10

So where did you get the packages to install Postgres itself?:

a) The CentOsS repos

b) The PGDG repos

I need to do this for both plperl and plperlu. I think there is perhaps something I don't have installed, but I can't tell what? I apologize if this is obvious, the language extensions are not something I deal with regularly.

If it helps, here is the result of "select version();" :
PostgreSQL 10.4 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (GCC) 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-28), 64-bit

Thanks for considering this,

Niles.
