  • I tried what you have suggested. But by adding public and postgis in the path by ALTER ROLE, the connection is established to the public schema. The finance schema is not listed. I tried by using only postgis and finance on the path, but that gives me the same error as earlier. Commented Feb 16, 2018 at 7:57
  • Something is messy. Have you tried to connect directly to your instance using psql or another GUI tool than qgis to clarify where things are actually installed? Also if there is similarly named object in different namespace of your path, Postgres will pick the first it found. So command should be SET search_path = finance, postgis, public Commented Feb 16, 2018 at 8:14
  • PS: but the fact that public seems needed make me wonder if you actually installed postgis in a different schema... you can test by calling schema qualified function SELECT public.postgis_version()ˋ and ˋSELECT postgis.postgis_version Commented Feb 16, 2018 at 8:17
  • Yes. I am using both psql and pgAdmin. All the databases, schemas and users seem to be in place. Commented Feb 16, 2018 at 8:20
  • Also stumble onto this article that might be helpful postgresonline.com/journal/archives/… So stupid question, did you remember to close and start a new connection between each testing? Commented Feb 16, 2018 at 8:23
