InitPostgres() fails through libpq - Mailing list pgsql-hackers

I'm using the latest CVS and PHP can't get a connection. Starting the
postmaster with or without the -i flag is not the problem. Also psql
works fine.

If I try to use PHP to access postgres I get the following:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Between InitPostgres()... and "An connection error occured" 'psql
verlag' show's a "Welcome to the POSTGRESQL interactive sql monitor:"

I append here the last lines from a strace (postmaster startet with -i):
