Currently, I am trying to build an application with Django geolocation using PostGIS and PostgreSQL but getting following error. I have inserted all libraries required but whenever I try to migrate the models i get error No such file or directory
django.db.utils.OperationalError: could not open extension control file "C:/Program
Files/PostgreSQL/12/share/extension/postgis.control": No such file or directory
My settings.py file looks something like this
