The error is probably due to your function being called
"Export_Resource_Select", which is not what you told postgres. C is
absolutly not case-insensetive. So you should specify the function name
directly.

create or replace function Export_Resource_Select(text,text,text)
returns text as 'Export_Resource_Select','/root/resource_test.so' language 'c';

Have a nice day,
