According to some of the reading that I have done on the web the lwpostgis.sql file should have been installed and it should appear in the fgs/apps/pgsql/share/ directory<BR>
<BR>
I have also tried to do a separate install of postgresql postgis etc but it fails on the "make check" of the GEOS installation. Is there any simple way to get PostGIS installed - I have literally been trying for 2 weeks<BR>
<BR>

Hi,
<PRE>
Is PostGIS installed in your FGS?
Go to your FGS installation root directory
$ ls etc/fgs/pkgs/
What is the output of that?
If you don't see postgis-lib in that, install it doing:
$ . setenv.sh
$ fgs install postgis-lib
Does that work?
Note that installing another postgresql on your server may cause problem
because it will probably end up running on the same port as FGS's
PostgreSQL. You can change FGS port in
etc/fgs/pkgs/postgresql-server/pgsql.conf
