Thread: [OFFTOPIC] Typo3 + Postgresql anyone?
Hi My company wants to run Typo3, and I'd like it to run against postgresql instead of mysql (Don't want to have to administer a mysql database ;-). I've googled a bit now, and it seems that I need ADODB for php + some Typo3 extension. Does anyone know of a howto that explains what software I'll need for that, and where to get it? Does anyone here have experience with Typo3+Postgresql that he might want to share? Thanks for your answers, and sorry for the slightly off-topic post ;-) greetings, Florian Pflug

Typo uses migrations, so it should be database agnostic. -- Greg Donald Zend Certified Engineer MySQL Core Certification http://destiney.com/

Installing DBAL was a pain, because it seems to be included in Typo3 4.0, and was therefore removed from the typo3 extension cvs on sourceforge. I ended up going through the changelog, and checking out a previous version (From somtime in december). Typo3 worked, but lots of extensions didn't, so in the end we'll have to use mysql :-( Maybe the upcoming 4.0 version will solve this... greetings, Florian Pflug
