Use "/usr/share/postgresql/8.4/contrib/postgis.sql" instead of "/usr/share/postgresql-8.2-postgis/lwpostgis.sql".

No, you need use postgis.sql first, then spatial_ref_sys.sql. To find postgis.sql: dpkg -L postgresql-8.4-postgis | grep "postgis.sql" – alvosu Feb 02 '11 at 09:37
on ubuntu 10 i found the file in "/usr/share/postgresql/8.4/contrib/postgis/postgis-1.5/postgis.sql" – nemesisdesign Jan 31 '13 at 19:03
