Why Won’t TimescaleDB Load in PostgreSQL 15 Docker Setup?

Hello

I have been trying to get TimescaleDB running inside a Docker container with PostgreSQL 15 but I keep running into the error FATAL: could not access file “timescaledb”: No such file or directory. :upside_down_face:

I have followed the official Docker image setup & the extension appears to install correctly but it fails to load when the database starts. The shared_preload_libraries setting is configured & I have verified the volume mount is persisting changes. :thinking:

I suspect there may be a mismatch between the TimescaleDB extension version and the base PostgreSQL image. I have tried rebuilding from different base images (bitnami, official postgres, timescale/timescaledb) but no luck. :thinking:

If anyone has resolved this issue or ha :slightly_smiling_face:s a working docker-compose.yml for PG15 + TimescaleDB, I would love to see it. Checked TigerData Documentation | Install TimescaleDB on Docker related to this and found it quite informative.

I am evaluating this setup as part of a broader analytics pipeline what is QlikView capable of in terms of integrating with PostgreSQL & TimescaleDB for time-series dashboards? :thinking: Just trying to figure out the best visualization stack once the backend is stable.

Thank you !! :slightly_smiling_face:
