Обсуждение: 7.1 upgrade problems

Hello,

I just updated a smaller database with some functions declared

   LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

from 7.0.3 to 7.1 (Debian package 7.1release-4)

The Debian package of postgresql 7.1 replaces the former extra package
postgresql-pl and so I guess that plpgsql support is now included in the
postgresql package.  Unfortunately I get

web=# CREATE FUNCTION changed_at_timestamp ( ) RETURNS opaque AS '
web'#     BEGIN
web'#         NEW.changedat := now();
web'#         RETURN NEW;
web'#     END;
web'# ' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
ERROR:  Unrecognized language specified in a CREATE FUNCTION: 'plpgsql'.
        Recognized languages are sql, C, internal, and created procedural languages.

I havn't found any hints about special things to do to enable plpgsql.  So
is there any reason why this failed?

Kind regards

         Andreas.

It is.

Could it be that you did not enable plpgsql? The Debian postinst script should
do this for you:

su postgres -c "/usr/lib/postgresql/bin/enable_lang plpgsql --all"
