New to managing postgresql, I hope my questions are not a burden to this group,
but I have another.
I have installed version 8.4.5 of postgresql, 1.12.1 of pgadmin3.
When I invoke pgadmin3 from a terminal prompt I get the message that
"The server lacks instrumentation functions....adminpack is installed and
activated by default...is included as a contrib module with all versions of
PostgreSQL 8.2 and above...copy the appropriate adminpack source code ..."
Yet adminpack.sql already exists in /contrib and according to the message, is
activated by default in 8.4.5.
I installed postgresql using Yast, set PGLIB and PGDATA by hand, changed
ownership to postgres and ran initdb to initialize it.
(I don't recall if I downloaded pgadmin3 from postgresql.org or used Yast to
install it. In Yast the version number of pgadmin3 is in red (?), so maybe I
downloaded it by hand.)
Do I need to do something to tell the system adminpack is already available, or
something else?
Thanks for any help with this issue.
Fred
