PostgreSQL - st_geometry error Enable Enterprise Geodatabase (10.6)

Luiz_AmadeuCoutinho — Tue, 06 Mar 2018 16:37:00 GMT

Hi guys

I´m trying to Enable one PostgreSQL Database and I got one error . PostgreSQL 9.6, Linux. Portal, Server and Datastore 10.6.

"You must copy the latest ST_GEOMETRY library to the PostgreSQL software location. Refer to the ArcGIS help topics for more details."

The st_geometry was on lib folder. I´m following the instructions from HELP .

I´m sure my st_geometry is the latest version, so, any idea?

Here the full error :

Not only does it need to be the correct ArcGIS release, but it also needs to be for the correct operating system AND PostgreSQL release, AND in the correct location (which varies by build source) so make sure it's the right file in the right place.

For good or for bad, the database is always right when it comes to library compatibility (the Direct Connect client just asks the PG instance if the library is present)

Hi Luiz,

Thanks for your post. I just want to verify a few things:

Is your ArcCatalog also 10.6?
If so do you have Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable Package (x64) installed on the ArcCatalog machine?
- ArcGIS Desktop 10.6 system requirements—System Requirements | ArcGIS Desktop
- The following bug might be related to what you are seeing: BUG-000111328: A misleading error message is returned when creating..
  - Note while it says it was reproduced in Pro 2.1 it was also reproduced in 10.6

If you are experiencing this bug, try installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable Package (x64) to see if it resolves the error.

Hi Vince

Thank you for your reply. You´re correct. The file was on the wrong place.

Hi Supriya

Thank you. I checked again the pg_config and the file was on the wrong place.

I put on lib folder but the correct is :

PKGLIBDIR = /opt/PostgreSQL/9.6/lib/postgresql

Thank you for your help.

I am having this same problem. I installed Posgres 9.6 on a new Windows VM. I copied the Windows 64 bit 9.6 st_geometry.dll into the %PostgreSQL%\lib folder. I get this same message when I try to use the Create Enterprise Geodatabase tool from ArcCatalog (10.5). Do I need to upgrade ArcGIS Desktop first?

ArcGIS 10.5 doesn't have a 9.6 PostgreSQL st_geometry DLL folder; it only supports PG 9.3, 9.4, and 9.5.
If you have a 10.6 Desktop, you need to use that to enable PG 9.6.
