[SOLVED] Postgis - Failed to install it on linux mint mate 17

Issue

I install postgis via sudo apt-get install postgis postgresql-9.3-postgis-2.1

Then execute CREATE EXTENSION postgis; but got following error tip:

ERROR:  could not load library "/usr/lib/postgresql/9.3/lib/postgis-2.1.so":
/usr/lib/postgresql/9.3/lib/postgis-2.1.so: undefined symbol: HeapTupleHeaderGetDatum

I am using postgresql 9.3.4, and postgis-2.1.

I did google for over an hour, but didn't found a solution that really solve my issue.

Any help?

Solution

I spend another hour, and finally tried to install it from source code, and succeed like a charm, no single issue occur!

Here is the link provide detail steps to install postgis from source code:

It also works for my Linux mint mate 17, which is base on ubuntu 14.04.
