PHP and libpq version question

Hello,

I have compiled an apache/php rpm package for my servers on a box which is running postgresSQL 8.1.9.  On a server
running8.1.0  I get the following when trying to start apache. 

Cannot load /opt/apache/modules/libphp5.so into server: /opt/apache/modules/libphp5.so: undefined symbol:
PQescapeStringConn

Is this because of the version difference?

Thanks,

Yes. PQescapeStringConn was added to the 8.1.x libpq at 8.1.4 so it isn't
there on the older server, and PHP uses it. You should upgrade the older
PostgreSQL server due to security fixes anyway.
