Hi,
I raised this problem yesterday aswell. I'm badly stuck at this point.
The problem is as follows:
I have a C function that i want to use in my postgres function.
I adopt the following steps to do that.
--- compile the C file as follows
gcc -shared -o test_func.so test_func.c
test_func.c is the name of the C file
--- the name of the function that i want to use from this c file is called 'command'
--- Postgres function is written as follows:
CREATE FUNCTION command(integer) RETURNS integer
AS 'usr/include/pgsql/server/test_func', 'command'
LANGUAGE C STRICT;
when i try to run this function, always gives me the follwoing error:
ERROR: could not access file "usr/include/pgsql/server/test_func": No such file or directory
I tried changin the permission of the file to 666 and even tried it with 755 but in vein.
I checked the log file but it just prints the above error and doesn't give me any more information.
I have no clue why is postgres not reading test_func object file.
Any kind of help would be appreciated
Thanks,
~Jas
