Hello, I am trying to run my first php script to connect to a PostgreSQL database on a Linux box with apache web server. When I try to load the page with the browser i get the following error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pg_connect() in /dirname/tryit.php on line 9 I was able to create tables on the database via the webadmin tool, so I know that postgres is running properly.
