Hello,
I'm trying to install oVirt 3.1, using an external postgres db running on RHEL6
(postgresql-server-8.4.12-1.el6_2.x86_64). I'm getting the following error during
engine-setup:
Error: uuid-ossp extension is not loaded into the DB.
Verify with the DB admin that uuid-ossp extension is loaded into newly created databases
and rerun the setup.
The database log indicates:
ERROR: function uuid_generate_v1() does not exist at character 8
HINT: No function matches the given name and argument types. You might need to add
explicit type casts.
STATEMENT: SELECT uuid_generate_v1();
I did some searching, and it appeared that I might need to add some postgres-contrib
functions:
psql -U postgres -d engine -f /usr/share/pgsql/contrib/uuid-ossp.sql
Unfortunately, it appears that the install script wants to create a temporary database and
expects these functions to exist on its newly-created temp DB, not an already-existing
database.
Has anyone else been bitten by this? Or have any ideas how to address this?
Thanks,
Ian
