postgresql: Help with hstore hextension

From

Hello,

 

We recently downloaded the “postgresql-10.7.tar.bz2” file from https://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/source/v10.7.

 

We configure our installation as followed:

 

./configure --prefix=/hostname/pg/PostgreSQL-10.7 --with-systemd

 

We created new database and things are working fine.

 

We are now trying to create “hstore” extension and ran into the error below.

 

opm=# CREATE EXTENSION hstore;

ERROR:  could not open extension control file "/pgdbadevbal801/pg/PostgreSQL-10.7/share/postgresql/extension/hstore.control": No such file or directory

 

I am very new to PostgreSQL work and greatly appreciate your expertise in guiding me through this error.

 

Is there a way we can add that extension into this installation we did like the “with-systemd” option above?

 

Dan

You need to build/install the contrib/hstore module, or possibly you'd
just want to install all of contrib.  "make all" and "make install"
at the top level don't touch the contrib subtree.

If you already wiped your build tree, you'll have to recreate it ---
be careful to give the same configure arguments as you used before.
