Postgres - Database extension pg_stat_statement is activ but table doesn't exists

Posted on June 26, 2025

We operate a Postgres database on Digital Ocean. The database was imported externally.

Now we need the information of the table for an analysis: pg_stat_statement.

But this table does not exist. The extension is active and installed.

It cannot be recreated either. (Message Exension already exists)

My searches have not been successful so far. Furthermore, I sometimes don’t have enough rights to set anything. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions as to how I can make progress here?

Postgres Version: 17
