ID: 12388 Updated by: mrobinso Reported By: ael97@aber.ac.uk Old Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Documentation problem PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: There are instructions in the postgres function summary (http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pgsql.php) detailing the compile requirements. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-07-26 01:11:49] ael97@aber.ac.uk I noticed that the PostgreSQL function summary does not explain that you need to have configured PHP using --with-pgsql[=DIR]. However, both MySQL and MSQL do. After discovering that I could not use any PostGreSQL functions. I consulted the manual thinking it would tell me that I needed to configure PHP but i didn't. I then looked at MySQL just as a comparison and that did? Something similar to what it says on the MySQL and mSQL pages would, perhaps, avoid confusion in the future. PS. I added something to this effect to the user contributed notes, however, a rather large URL has meant that it has mucked up the formatting of the page, sorry. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=12388&edit=1
