Install fussystrmatch package on postgresql

Step 1: Install package postgresql-contrib-8.*

You may use command sudo apt-get or may use GUI tool like Synaptic package manager.

Note * points to version like 8.3,8.4 etc

Step 2: go to directory where you will find sql files

cd usr/share/postgresql/8.*/contrib

Note * points to version like 8.3,8.4 etc

and execute following command

psql -d indiainfo -U postgres -W -f fuzzystrmatch.sql

this will create all functions like metaphone, soundex etc for you.

Hope this helps you
