Where's the step by step guide to make this work? Cpanel/WHM and Plesk are THE most widespread control panels, and I see zilch on postgresql.org that addresses them. Maybe this is why MySQL is popular. The thing just works! (Which is all one needs in 99% of simple webbie cases). Thanks in advance!
Well looks like Plesk and stuff would handle this incorrect and are to be blamed for this. This is not the business of postgresql to fix broken deployment applications they dont own. If they would handle mySQL the same way it woulndt work either. Regards Tino
