trouble installing plpgsql

Hello,

When I attempt to run 'createlang plpgsql template1' I get the following
error:

Error at or near "createlang " at character 1

Running psql 7.3.4 on redhat 9

Logged in as postgres

Verified existence of /usr/lib/pgsql/plpgsql.so

Any ideas on how to fix this problem?

createlang is a shell script, not an SQL command. Run it from the shell.

We are trying to make some things work with plpgsql. The problem is that I built several functions that call one another, and I thought that the way of calling it was just making the assign: var:=func1(arg1,arg2); which gave me an error near ")". Now if I did the same, but like this:

I've got a bit of a strange problem that's causing me some MAJOR headaches. I'm developing the server-side of a large database application in PostgreSQL. This consists of a C daemon, and a LOT of stored functions in the database. I'm developing this in conjunction with another company, who is developing the the client side. I've got a 7.4 server that I'm developing on, and once a day I push my changes up to a common

Hi, Thought perhaps some other eyes than mine can tell if I'm doing something wrong here or if there's a bug somewhere. I've never passed a ROWTYPE varaible to a function but I don't see where the problem is. I keep getting errors like (the first is my debug output): NOTICE: last cycle is: 11 WARNING: Error occurred while executing PL/pgSQL function

I had RH9 Linux. It came with pgSQL, but I couldn't seem to figure out how to get PL/pgSQL going. I read the HTML documentation that came with it and was confused until I tried a few different variations and guessed about some things. I've finally got it working and here's what the SQL looks like to enable and test it: -- ON YOUR SYSTEM, LOOK FOR WHERE plpgsql.so FILE EXISTS AND SUBSTITUTE THAT -- PATH WITH THE ONE I HAVE BELOW.

FYI, mostly. But I do have questions as to how to write code that will continue to work in subsequent postgresql versions. See code below. begintest() uses EXIT to exit a BEGIN block from within nested loops. No problem. begintest2() simplifies this, omitting the nested loops. Still no problem.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
