Hi!, about this, I'm using it local, in the same server is postgresql and the database and the apache web server too. I have downloaded the php-pgsql again and install it again, it was an rpm and i have knoppix (debian), so I did it with #alien -i, I have this in my php.ini ------ ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; Dynamic Extensions ; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; ; If you wish to have an extension loaded automatically, use the following ; syntax: ; ; extension=modulename.extension ; ; For example, on Windows: ; ; extension=msql.dll ; ; ... or under UNIX: ; ; extension=msql.so ; ; Note that it should be the name of the module only; no directory information ; needs to go here. Specify the location of the extension with the ; extension_dir directive above. extension=pgsql.so ------ I have pgsql.so in /usr/lib/php4/20020429 which is the place where phpinfo(); says it's searching for extensions ------- and my /etc/postgresql/pg_hba.conf says: # # TYPE DATABASE USER IP-ADDRESS IP-MASK METHOD # Database administrative login by UNIX sockets local all all trust # # All other connections by UNIX sockets local all all trust # # All IPv4 connections from localhost host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 trust # # All IPv6 localhost connections host all all ::1 ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff trust host all all ::ffff:127.0.0.1/128 trust # # reject all other connection attempts localhost all all 192.168.1.6 255.255.255.0 trust ------- and the phpinfo page shows: pgsql PostgreSQL Support enabled Active Persistent Links 0 Active Links 0 Directive Local Value Master Value pgsql.allow_persistent On On pgsql.auto_reset_persistent Off Off pgsql.max_links Unlimited Unlimited pgsql.max_persistent Unlimited Unlimited ----- I don't know what am I doing but it doesn't work, when I execute the php web page: <html> <head> <title>Ejemplo</title> </head> <body> <?php $db = pg_connect("dbname=cdtaller4_3"); $query = "select * from empleados"; $result = pg_exec($db, $query); if (!$result) { printf ("ERROR"); $errormessage = pg_errormessage($db); echo $errormessage; exit; } ?> <a href="index3.php">a index3</a> </body> </html> It doesn't shows any error or something it stays on the same page it was, and do nothing... Thanks...if somebody knows another configuration I'm forgetting.. (PHP 4, Apache, PostgreSQL 7.4.2, Knoppix 3.4) thanks! --- CGMoller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > > Question - You say other php scripts work, do they > connect to the database > too? > > I see you have not specified a user to connect to > the database.
