Aaarg... ok, does anyone know if dbases can be converted between mySQL
and PostgreSQL? If so, I don't mind fiddling with mysql and using it
temporarily until Midgard can support it, but I definately like pgsql
better. I don't use any of the features of Midgard other than the PHP
stuff (at least for right now). Should that impact things at all? I
mean, it does come with a pgsql module which I'm assuming should connect
to a pgsql server via PHP3, but it doesn't... neither does it work with
mod_php3, which I thought odd, but when I tried to recompile mod_php3
specifically adding "--with-pgsql" it came up with a whole bunch of errors
that wouldn't allow me compile it... That's where I'm really confused
because I do have postgresql-devel installed.
