Thread: instaling Libxml2

Hy,

I tried to install Libxml2 for postgresql in windows:

1. download postgres-xml2-8.0.1-bin.zip and copy to C:\Program
Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\
2. cd bin
3. psql -U postgres -f ..\share\contrib\pgxml.sql

And get this error:

psql:../share/contrib/pgxml.sql:4: ERROR:  permission denied for language c
psql:../share/contrib/pgxml.sql:7: ERROR:  permission denied for language c
psql:../share/contrib/pgxml.sql:10: ERROR:  permission denied for language c

Can someone help me?

This is strange, if only because installing C functions requires
superuser privileges.  But normally, the "postgres" user has such
privileges.  There's something unusual about your installation that
makes it not have them (maybe it got them revoked, or maybe the initial
installation was done with a different user).

Get a listing of users (\u in psql) and pick one for the -U switch that
has superuser privileges.
