While i am trying to extract feature classes from postgres database to esri file geodatabse, i am not able to get the geometries, if i use postgres in the Format dropdown of Reader. After enabling PostGIS on the database i am not able to see any spatial objects in the tables list.. What is the correct process to read postgis enabled postgres database?

The postgis reader will only work for tables created using postgis functionality. If the tables are from some other system (e.g. SDE), you most probably cannot use the postgis reader.

Could that be the case here?

Thanks for your response. The source is a Postgres database and DBA says that PostGIS is enabled for it.
