Hi
We had decided to drop our UUID generation function from DB in 4.2.1 and use the one provided by PG (using an extension) Please note that once this patch [1] is merged , you will have to do the following steps in your env in order that it will continue working.
1) make sure that the postgresql-contrib is installed on your machine (yum/dnf install postgresql-contrib -y)
Just adding that package name is "postgresql-contrib" for Fedora and "rh-postgresql95-postgresql-contrib" for CentOS and it needs to be installed manually on engine developer's machines
2) run the following command from psql prompt while logging in with a DB admin (postgres) user a) DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS uuid_generate_v1(); b) CREATE EXTENSION "uuid-ossp";' 3) validate from psql prompt by :
# select * from pg_available_extensions where name = 'uuid-ossp' and installed_version IS NOT NULL;
You should get the following result
-[ RECORD 1 ]-----+------------------------------------------------ name | uuid-ossp default_version | 1.0 installed_version | 1.0 comment | generate universally unique identifiers (UUIDs)
Please contact me for any questions or problems you encounter after this patch is merged to master.
