note 72336 added to ref.pdo-pgsql

If you want to use "Aliasing" in your code, that is to define the DSN string in the php.ini file as described in the documentation for the constructor object for PDO itself (ex.) try { $dbh = new PDO("foo"); } catch(PDOException $e) { echo $e->getMessage(); } for the Aliasing to work, the DSN MUST be defined in the following way, following the syntax exactly... that is with double quotes, the equal sign, etc. I dinked around with this for quite some time before I figured this out. Again, that is no space between the dsn alias and the equals sign, no space after the equals sign, double quotes around the DSN, not single quotes, and spaces in between the attributes, not semicolons. I am not sure about whether you must also designate all the connection attributes show here or not but this is what ultimately worked for me. pdo.dsn.foo="pgsql:host=localhost port=5432 dbname=foodb user=foouser password=foopassword" ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 68.104.144.247 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pdo-pgsql.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/72336 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72336/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72336/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72336/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72336/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72336/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72336/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72336 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/72336 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
