TimeTrex Time and Attendance

Hi, I have installed timetrex as per the instructions. I have the Requirements page showing all OKs .. except for Database Engine, which shows in red "Invalid (postgresql)" .. ( just a minor problem !! )

I have edited the timetrex.ini.php file many times, using various best guesses at the option

[database]
type = postgres8 ... i have tried postgresql, postgresql8, postgres ... etc

all with no joy.

I am using Fedora Core 5, with PostgreSQL 8.1.4. The database server is working fine, since my accounting system iw working.

What is the requirements page looking for?

Cheers and Beers

The problem isn't the timetrex.ini.php file, the problem is your PHP installations doesn't have the PostgreSQL extension installed. You need to make sure PHP is loading the "pgsql" extension, then the Database Engine requirement will turn green.

many thanx .. i look forward to trying out the software

Woo Hoo! That was it.

In PHP 5.2.2, re-run the windows installer, picked MySQL. Installed, Restarted IIS, refreshed requirements page and all is ok.

On to step 4!
