Enable enable_repartition_joins in CItus

Question

I was running some SQL query and got the error: sqlalchemy.exc.InternalError: (psycopg2.errors.InternalError_) the query contains a join that requires repartitioning HINT: Set citus.enable_repartition_joins to on to enable repartitioning

So, I tried enabling enable_repartition_joins in citus using: SET citus.enable_repartition_joins = on;

but when I run SHOW citus.enable_repartition_joins; it results off.

Any possible reason why could this be happening?

Tried Methods:

• Restarting Postgres didn't help.
• The queries don't show any error while execution.
• The user is "postgres" i.e super admin
• postgres -c "psql -p 9700 -U postgres -c 'SET citus.enable_repartition_joins = on;'" Tried this command as well.
