I think from binary; it was installed as a part of Slackware, and I made no special efforts to compile. Version of PHP is 4.3.7 (thanks Mychael) Other: Linux kernel is 2.4.26 Apache version is 1.3.31 Looks like MySQL may already be configured in PHP (saw that in phpinfo() ) When installing PostgreSQL, I am fairly certain I made no attempt to configure anything in the database to permit use of PHP, as that was not a consideration at that time. In fact, not sure it even asked; it did ask about some languages (stored procedure language, TCL, etc). -----Original Message----- From: Mychael Scribner [mailto:myk@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thu 3/10/2005 2:40 PM To: Van Ingen, Lane; php-db@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: Subject: RE: PHP and PostgreSQL save this to a php file and run it.

If you compiled -- did you configure the PHP module --with-pgsql? I have not installed a binary in the past so I am not sure how you activate the pgsql module in that regard. The problem though is that the version of PHP you are running is not configured to support pgsql and you will need to do that to get it recognize the pgsql specific functions. <?php /* Stephen Johnson c | eh The Lone Coder http://www.thelonecoder.com stephen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 562.924.4454 (office) 562.924.4075 (fax) continuing the struggle against bad code */ ?> > From: "Van Ingen, Lane" <lvaningen@xxxxxxxxx> > Date: Thu, 10 Mar 2005 14:32:39 -0500 > To: <php-db@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: PHP and PostgreSQL > > I am new to PHP.
