_st_summarystats and st_summarystats are listed with the same exact arguments. Should this be the case? There are also 7 other "st_summarystats" listed, all with different numbers of arguments.

And now I'm really out the door, back at it tomorrow, many thanks.

Good point. I didn't think about duplicative function declarations, though that shouldn't happen as the function signatures haven't changed in a long time.

Steve,

I had a similar issue. If you look at your list of functions (say through pgAdmin), you'll probably see multiple instances of that function. If the
same function is listed more than once, with the same number and type of
arguments, then it will (I think?) report as not unique. In that case, I manually deleted the duplicate functions, and then added them back. To add them back, look inside the rt_postgis.sql (or postgis.sql) file than comes with the distribution (I'm using alpha5). you'll see all of the functions
in there.  Just cut and paste the necessary CREATE OR REPLACE statements
for your functions into the Query Tool or psql console window.

Steve,

I know enough to do my own testing and make the necessary changes. Until I
have the time to do so, the following should work.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION st_summarystats(rast raster,
exclude_nodata_value boolean)
RETURNS summarystats
AS $$ SELECT _st_summarystats($1, 1, $2, 1.) $$
LANGUAGE 'SQL' IMMUTABLE STRICT;

Tried running it and get this:

"ERROR: function _st_summarystats(raster, integer, boolean, integer) is
not unique
LINE 3: AS $$ SELECT _st_summarystats($1, 1::int, $2, 1) $$
^
HINT: Could not choose best candidate function. You might need to add
explicit type casts"

Interesting. Can you run the following and try again?

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION st_summarystats(rast raster,
exclude_nodata_value boolean)
RETURNS summarystats
AS $$ SELECT _st_summarystats($1, 1::int, $2, 1) $$
LANGUAGE 'SQL' IMMUTABLE STRICT;

If that removes the HINT, I'll make the appropriate changes to the code.

I only tried the casting because of the messages I get, on of which is:

"function _st_summarystats($1, 1, $2, 1) is not unique"
and
"HINT: Could not choose best candidate function. You might need to add
explicit type casts"

Thanks,
steve

Hey Steve,

_st_summarystats is an underlying function that isn't meant for use by
end-users. ST_SummaryStats is what you should be using.

The example query you provided shouldn't have any issues and shouldn't be creating any of those messages. In your situation, you don't even
need the true::boolean.

Should I have both _st_summarystats and st_summarystats in my
database?
I get messages like "function not unique" and "could not choose best
candidate function" when doing this:

SELECT rid, observation_date, ST_SummaryStats(rast::raster,
true::boolean) FROM spring_ms WHERE observation_date = '2012-02-20';

I expected to get 187 records (one for each tile).

Thanks,
Steve
