I have installed idempiere ERP which requires uuid-ossp library. I have tried to recompile postgresql-11.2 with the option --with-uuid=ossp. When run I CREATE EXTENSION "uuid-ossp"; I get the following error: ERROR: could not open extension control file "/data/databases/postgres/pgsql11/share/extension/uuid-ossp.control": No such file or directory. select * from pg_available_extensions; gives me this list (without uuid-ossp, of course): name | default_version | installed_version | comment ------------+-----------------+-------------------+------------------------------------------- pltclu | 1.0 | | PL/TclU untrusted procedural language pltcl | 1.0 | | PL/Tcl procedural language plperl | 1.0 | | PL/Perl procedural language plperlu | 1.0 | | PL/PerlU untrusted procedural language plpythonu | 1.0 | | PL/PythonU untrusted procedural language plpython2u | 1.0 | | PL/Python2U untrusted procedural language plpgsql | 1.0 | 1.0 | PL/pgSQL procedural language (7 rows) Is there a reason why this extension was not created during compilation/installation? Thanks
