Hi Andrew
You're right. That was a typo in the newsgroup, but pg_last_error() still doesn't work because $rc is boolean, not a resouce connection
type. If your connection to the database server fails you cannot get any error-message from the server ;-)
I can do it with PHP and MySQL! =) How about this. Can I list PostgreSQL database files from PHP? With MySQL and PHP, I just connect to the server. Then, I can query whether the database file exists ("SHOW DATABASES"). If not, I create it. How do I do that with PostgreSQL?
function open() { $rc = @pg_connect("db=wishiwhereusingmysql"); if (!$rc) { echo "Connection failed"; } else { return ($rc); } } Regards Conni
