ID: 9368 User Update by: dbucher@niftycom.com Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: PostgreSQL related Description: Impossible to load pgsql.so Bug closed. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-02-21 14:51:58] dbucher@niftycom.com It is really a bug. But it is not a PHP bug. For information : ================= The bug is due to Debian. In some cases, you get a very slightly different package name, for example from KDE and this package is NOT compatible !!! The package you should have is : "3:3.0.18-1potato.2" BUT you have : "3:3.0.18-1.potato.2" Just remark the point !!! You have to get the right package (remove wrong package, remove KDE from your sources.tree, reinstall correct package) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-02-21 07:58:02] dbucher@niftycom.com COULD NOT LOAD pgsql.so : I tryed two ways : * dl("pgsql.so") gives an error : Fatal error: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php3/apache/pgsql.so' - /usr/lib/php3/apache/pgsql.so: undefined symbol: empty_string in /var/www/admin/sushis/exemple.php3 on line 6 * "extension=pgsql.so" in /etc/php3/apache/php3.ini has NO effect : Fatal error: Call to unsupported or undefined function pg_connect() in /var/www/admin/sushis/exemple.php3 on line 8 SOS !
