Hi Thomas,
Did you create/insert plpgsql language in your database? I guess not...
Check your database with createlang -l YOUR_DATABASE_NAME. This should
show you the languages installed in your database. In case you don't
have it, just use createlang plplgsql YOUR_DATABASE_NAME. This should
work...
Suggestion, if you are gonna use plpgsql a lot developing in
Postgresql, I suggest that you create the language you need in template1
(createlang LANGUAGE template1). By doing that you will automatically
create the language in your new database when issuing a createdb
NEWDATABASE, because createdb uses template1 as a template to create
your new database...
RTM createlang for more info...
