Postgresql Not in the Database Type list

Post by WBD790Prgz »

During install, after getting through the requirements and onto step 3.Database Configuration, I only have Mysqli and Mysql Legacy driver listed in Database Type.

This server is a dev machine, Ubuntu 14.04; php 5.5.9, Postgresql 9.3 Apache 2.4.7.
This is the only Postgresql app I'm currently using but not the first I've ever run. But with all the changes I've done over the last year its easily possible I've done something to hinder PostgreSQL; question is what?

I can access PostgeSQL from psql and webmin.

I also created in the virtual server <Directory> options for the timetrex app and its php.ini values that are different from the apache's :
include_path , extension_dir, enable_dl and session.save_path

from timetrex.ini.php
[database]
host=localhost
type=postgres8
database_name=timetrex
user=xxxxxx
password="yyyyy"

But I am unable to figure out why postgresql isn't in the list.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Please check to make sure PHP5-PGSQL package is installed and enabled properly.

I've gone on and used mysql for now but I'll check the install of PHP5-PGSQL to possibly retry with postgresql. I'm actually not sure I'll keep timetrex as it seems to be more than we require of a work scheduling app.

Thanks for your help
