How do I enable php to work with postgresql?

You need to install the pgsql module for php. In debian/ubuntu is something like this:

sudo apt-get install php5-pgsql

Or if the package is installed, you need to enable de module in php.ini

extension=php_pgsql.dll (windows)
extension=php_pgsql.so (linux)

Greatings.

For debian/ubuntu install

sudo apt-get install php-pgsql

Try this:

Uncomment the following in php.ini by removing the ";"

;extension=php_pgsql.dll

Use the following code to connect to a postgresql database server:

pg_connect("host=localhost dbname=dbname user=username password=password")
    or die("Can't connect to database".pg_last_error());
