No, I installed PostgreSQL and PHP with the RPM's, and I believe Apache was
already installed when I installed Redhat.
Please note that PHP _does_ work. I can use PHP commands and it works fine.
It's just when I try to use the PostgreSQL commands, I get an error.
For example, if I do something like:
<?php
$connection=ph_connect("dbname=testdb")
?>
I get an error: "Fatal error: Call to unsupported or undefined function
pg_connect in /home/httpd/html/mypage.php on line 10"
So, PHP works, Apache works, PSQL works by itself, it's just PHP and PSql
don't work and I can't get what I assume is the "missing link"
(php-pgsql-3.0.15-2.rpm) to install.
