Thread: WAPP - Can't connect to PostgreSQL using PHP
Hello Everyone, I am novice in using PostgreSQL 8.3.1, PHP 5.2.6, and Apache 2.2.9 but I manage to installed it in my Windows XP Pro laptop. However, when I my test my Apache installed its work. For PHP, it also work and i can even connect to MySQL database installed also in my laptop. But, when I write a simple code to connect to PostgreSQL it does not work. Does anyone help me. Thank in advance. -- Roche Tumlad Magsayo rtmsoft@yahoo.com rtmsoft@gmail.com
Roche..... Try a brief script calling the phpinfo(); function to see if the module to give php pgsql support is loaded. Since mysql works you should see one called mysql - there should be another called pgsql or similar. brew On Wed, Jun 25, 2008 at 2:38 AM, roche magsayo <rtmsoft@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello Everyone, > > I am novice in using PostgreSQL 8.3.1, PHP 5.2.6, and Apache 2.2.9 but > I manage to installed it in my Windows XP Pro laptop.

There have been several issues with the PHP 5.2.6 windows binary build, I would suggest backtracking to 5.2.5 if there are no other patch issues relevant to your use of the software on your Windows XP installation, or using a combination of the dlls found in the 5.2.5 binary release for the pgsql support. Please see: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=44905 Unfortunately we have not had consistent success using the workarounds described in the above bug thread, and the issue does not get a lot of spotlight so it can be difficult and time-consuming for many individuals to recognize.

Hi,
I am using WAMPServer 2 (http://www.wampserver.com/en/index.php) - which provides a good development environment for Windows based Apache - PHP. It allows you to install almost all the existing releases(http://www.wampserver.com/en/add-ons.php) of Apache, PHP (and MySQL) and configure them easily - so that you can enable the MySQL or PgSQL modules as you want in your PHP extensions.
I have PostgreSQL 8.2.4 and WampServer2 (Apache 2.2.6 and PHP 5.2.5) installed on my XP laptop and it works fine. I also use phppgadmin (http://sourceforge.net/projects/phppgadmin) which is similar to but not as much userfriendly (atleast) like phpmyadmin.
Though I have not used myself, I still know that WampServer allows you to install * any number of * latest releases of Apache and PHP and configure and switch between them.
Thanks and Regards,
Chandra-ASGI

Try a brief script calling the phpinfo(); function to see if the module
to give php pgsql support is loaded. Since mysql works you should see
one called mysql - there should be another called pgsql or similar.
