PG::UndefinedFile: ERROR: could not open extension control file


After upgrading Postgres i am getting the following error when i try to migrate the database.

enable_extension(:postgis)
  SQL (17.2ms)  CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS "postgis"
PG::UndefinedFile: ERROR:  could not open extension control file "/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.4.5/share/postgresql/extension/postgis.control": No such file or directory
: CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS "postgis"
   (0.3ms)  ROLLBACK
rake aborted!
StandardError: An error has occurred, this and all later migrations canceled:

Not sure where to get started. Most other questions seem to related to Linux and when i tried to create the symlink also it did not work.


Solution

  • You should install postgresql-9.4-postgis-2.1
