I am trying to install PostGis on Postgress via psql terminal, but I get the error

extension "postgis" is not available

DETAIL: Could not open extension control file "/usr/share/postgresql/16/extension/postgis.control": No such file or directory.

HINT: The extension must first be installed on the system where PostgreSQL is running.

What should I do to install post gis?

Hello,

The default Postgres database does not come with PostGIS installed, if you need PostGIS you must deploy the PostGIS template -

https://railway.com/template/postgis

yes, and I used this template... But I don't understand what it's all about when I see an error in it. What and where should I enter it to make it work? I didn't find any proper documentation on this matter
