I'm fully aware that the pdo_pgsql works as it should - here is an example:

try {
    $c = new PDO('pgsql:host=127.0.0.1 user=postgres password=xxx
dbname=yyy', 'postgres', 'xxx');
} catch (PDOException $e) {
    var_dump( $e->getMessage() );
}

However, the pgsql driver needs some updating or should be deprecated.

Best regards.
