Hello

I compiled from source postgresql 12.1 and all went fine but when I try to
restore my DB I can see that I have 3 extensions missing: uuid-ossp,
btree_gist, tablefunc.
I tried to run: CREATE EXTENSION "uuid-ossp"; and the error is ERROR: could
not open extension control file
"/usr/local/pgsql_12.1/share/extension/uuid-ossp.control": No such file or
directory
How do I enable these extensions? I tried to copy the file from my previous
postgres version but is not compatible.
These were my compiling options: ./configure --with-ossp-uuid
--with-uuid=bsd --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql_12.1

Did you also do a "make install" under the contrib/ directory?

It works.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
