I'm new to PostgreSQL and I've been trying to run a sql function written by Dr. Horst Duester, found in http://www.kappasys.ch/cms/index.php?id=65&L=5, which is used to aggregate detached polygons. It requires that two functions be installed first:

$ psql -U -h -f cleanGeometry.sql

$ psql -U -h -f aggregatePolygons.sql

both of which can be downloaded from the aforementioned web page.

I have managed to install the first, but when I try the second I get the following error message in the command prompt:

C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.3\bin>psql -d test_db_1 -U postgres -h localhost - f aggregatePolygons.sql

Password for user postgres:

psql:aggregatePolygons.sql:56: ERROR: syntax error at or near "ο?Ώ" LINE 1: ο?Ώ ^

CREATE FUNCTION

psql:aggregatePolygons.sql:89: ERROR: function _aggregatepolygonsfunction(geome try, geometry, double precision, boolean) does not exist

GRANT

psql:aggregatePolygons.sql:93: ERROR: aggregate aggregatepolygons(geometry, dou ble precision, boolean) does not exist psql:aggregatePolygons.sql:100: ERROR: function _aggregatepolygonsfunction(geom etry, geometry, double precision, boolean) does not exist

Has anyone encountered the same problem and found a solution? Thank you!
