The command terminal showed how httpd was stopped and restarted. I still cannot see a way of starting the phppgadmin program; the documentation is poor. I opened using opera the following file: file://localhost/var/www/phppgadmin/login.php The browser shows: printHeader($lang['strlogin']); $misc->printBody(); $misc->printTrail('root'); $server_info = $misc->getServerInfo($_REQUEST['server']); $misc->printTitle(sprintf($lang['strlogintitle'], $server_info['desc'])); if (isset($msg)) $misc->printMsg($msg); ?> $val) { if (substr($key,0,5) == 'login') continue; echo "\n"; } ?> 1) : ?> /> printFooter(); ?> I am expecting to see some sort of dialogue window appear to allow connection to the database, similar to what I achieve when connecting via openoffice base. Is apache now successfully configured for me to ask how to use phppgadmin in the phppgadmin mailing list? --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
