| 06:05:58 | Tykling: | hello gentlemen, I am trying to install postgis on FreeBSD 7 for a friend, I've installed the port but he says that the database I created for him doesn't contain the gis functions, and that I need to create the database with a template, does anybody know how/where I can find this template for/on freebsd ? |
| 06:07:48 | Tykling: | he says that the template is normally called template_gis - this is the list of files that the postgis port installed on my system: http://kukka.p.tyk.nu/72481 |

| 06:09:17 | Tykling: | there is a few sql files among those, but I am not sure if and how I should use those to give him the GIS functions in postgres that he needs |
