I saw this exact error just the other day on a Red Hat 9 system. It is a
PHP issue, not a Postgres one. The cause in my case was that I added:
extension=pgsql.so
to /etc/php.ini, not realizing that Red Hat had patched PHP to look in
/etc/php.d, where it found the same line in a file called pgsql.ini. As
soon as I removed the extra reference, the error went away.
HTH,
