Have you turned on statement logging in the database to verify that PHP is sending the query you think it is? Have you looked for errors in the database logs? What does the PHP code that fetches the results look like? > Actually, these queries do not fail they just don't return any data. > Do you think it's more likely a bug in the script?

I didn't mean to suggest not using libpq 8.x; I was suggesting that you review your queries to make sure you're not depending on implicit type casts that PDO's emulated prepared statements might be making that will no longer be made with the "real" prepared statements that PDO uses when linked against libpq 8.x. -- Michael Fuhr
