Hi, But my understanding is that this approach is used when upgrading PostGIS. I'm upgrading postgresql from 9.4 to 9.6 and PostGIS version remains the same (2.4.5). If I execute: drop extension postgis; CREATE EXTENSION postgis SCHEMA postgis; select PostGIS_full_version();
postgis_full_version ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ POSTGIS="2.4.5 r16765" PGSQL="96" GEOS="3.6.2-CAPI-1.10.2 4d2925d6" PROJ="Rel. 4.9.3, 15 August 2016" GDAL="GDAL 1.11.4, released 2016/01/25" LIBXML="2.9.1" LIBJSON="0.11" RASTER everything looks OK. Is this wrong?
