the only time I have received that error message is when
/usr/lib/php4/pgsql.so was not installed on rh 9.0 installation of
server + kde + gnome. seems they didn't install php-pgsql.

to verify that your new php actualy has postgresql configured create
test file
test.php
containing
<?php
phpinfo();
?>

run php -f test.php > test.html
view test.html with browser
and verify that pgsql.so made it into the
/usr/lib/php4 directory

hope this helps, I know my gooooogle search didn't, but the other rh 9.0
install did work and the only thing i did different was to check install
every thing
hope this helps
