Hello,
I'm trying to install oVirt 3.1, using an external postgres db running on RHEL6
(postgresql-server-8.4.12-1.el6_2.x86_64). I'm getting the following error
during engine-setup:
Error: uuid-ossp extension is not loaded into the DB.
Verify with the DB admin that uuid-ossp extension is loaded into newly
created databases and rerun the setup.
The database log indicates:
ERROR: function uuid_generate_v1() does not exist at character 8
HINT: No function matches the given name and argument types. You might need
to add explicit type casts.
STATEMENT: SELECT uuid_generate_v1();
I did some searching, and it appeared that I might need to add some
postgres-contrib functions:
psql -U postgres -d engine -f /usr/share/pgsql/contrib/uuid-ossp.sql
Unfortunately, it appears that the install script wants to create a temporary
database and expects these functions to exist on its newly-created temp DB, not
an already-existing database.
Indeed this step is required for postgresql 8.4.x (you have to install
this script).
I did not encounter an issue with this script.
I ran
psql -U postgres -d engine -f /usr/share/pgsql/contrib/uuid-ossp.sql
And the script execution went smoothly (this scripts runs instructions
of create or replace function so it is re-entrant).
Can you please elaborate more on the error you're getting?
Has anyone else been bitten by this? Or have any ideas how to address this?
Thanks,
Ian
