Good morning,
I recently installed PostgreSQL 9.0 on Windows XP with the intent to use the crosstab function in one of my PostgreSQL databases. I have a complete install, the process is running in Task Manager, and I’ve been able to run basic commands. However, getting crosstab working (and installing tablefunc) have been an issue that perhaps you can clear up.
As I understand it, all I should need to do to install tablefunc is run /share/contrib/tablefunc.sql either through pgAdmin or the command line. In either case, I’m getting the error “ERROR: could not access file “$libdir/tablefunc”: No such file or directory”. I’ve checked to make sure that the $libdir variable is pointing to the correct place, and have tried editing the sql file itself to make sure it’s pointing to the correct place.
Are there any additional steps I need to perform before I can get tablefunc installed? Do I need to download the contrib files separately? It appears that they exist as they should, with tablefunc.sql existing in the /contrib folder and a tablefunc.dll existing in the /lib folder. If I do need to install something additional, where can I find the necessary files? My google searches have yet to turn up a place to install the packages for Windows.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Ian Miller
