phpPgAdmin problem - this list?

[Chris Green]

I'm not sure if this is really on topic for this list but I'll start
here.

I'm trying to run phpPgAdmin, I've installed version 3.5, I have
postgresql version 7.4.3 running on slackware 9.1.

I already have phpMyAdmin running successfully.

When I try and run phpPgAdmin I get:-

"Your PHP installation does not support PostgreSQL. You need to
recompile PHP using the --with-pgsql configure option."

However the /usr/lib/php/extensions directory *has* got the pgsql.so
library file, so can anyone suggest what might be wrong? Or
alternatively point me to somewhere better to ask?

Try one of the php lists. But check that the extension is enabled in the
php.ini first (uncomment the extension=pgsql .so line).

Excellent, that was it, thanks very much, it's saved me some time
hunting elsewhere. Strangely phpMyAdmin doesn't need the mysql.so
extension enabled but phpPgAdmin does.

That is because PHP compiles in mysql by default :).
