Thread: Server Instrumentation Help
So when I connect to my PostgreSQL 9.1.2 enterprise database, I'm greeted with a window from pgAdmin3 that says: The server lacks instrumentation functions. pgAdmin III uses some support functions that are not available by default in all PostgreSQL versions. These enable some tasks that make life easier when dealing with log files and configuration files. The adminpack is installed and activated by default if you are running the one-click installer of PostgreSQL. On Unix, you may have to install the contrib package, either with the your package installer tool or by compilation. Once your extension is installed, you only need to click on the "Fix it!" button, so that pgAdmin installs this extension in your maintenance database. I'm assuming you're all very familiar with this warning and I'd like to know how to go about resolving this issue so it doesn't keep popping up. I know I can ignore and set to know remind me again however I 'DO' want to resolve this. Can someone please help me with what I can do to resolve this. My info is below: DBMS = PostgreSQL 9.1.2 x86_64 O.S. = GNU/Debian Linux 6.0.3 x86_64 Kernel = 3.2.7 pdAdmin3 = v1.14.0 (Sep 28, 2011) Thanks in advanced!

My info is below: Make sure the postgresql-contrib-9.1 package is installed (I'm assuming you installed the Debian packages), then hit the "Fix it!" button. -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
