Call to undefined function: pg_connect()

Hi All,

I Updated my Postgresql Server from 7.2.4 which came along with RH7.3 to
7.3.2. After updating I could not able to connect database through PHP. So I
recompiled PHP4.1.2 (same version which have earlier in my system), even
then I am not able to connect through PHP. Is there any other package has to
be installed for this connection.

Please some body help me out regarding. I am breaking my head since two
days.

Thanks for any idea.

Regards,
Sreedhar Bhaskararaju

If I remember correctly, this is because libpq.so changed from
libpq.so.2 to libpq.so.3. Is there an old copy of libpq.so.2 hanging
around that is getting linked with instead of libpq.so.3? Did you re-run
configure and do a `make clean` on PHP before rebuilding it? If you are
really desperate, try creating a libpq.so.2 symlink from libpq.so.3.

HTH,

Joe

/usr/lib/libpq.so

I have the above versions of libpq.so in my system. Which I have to use.
Suppose it might have to chage any config files where I should change.

Thanks alot,
With best regards,

I was playing the other day, and got pgsql 7.3.4, php 4.3.2 and apache
1.3.28 up and running fine on redhat 7.2 with all updates.  Straighforward
build.  Had some issues trying to make older flavors of php work with
apache after 1.3.27, but updating PHP helped on that.

I'd recommend trying the latest version of PHP if you can upgrade to it,
and see if that helps.
