Re: Fwd: Web Hosting support for pgsql in PHP

Well,

[~]# uname -a
Linux s17-dallas.accountservergroup.com 3.2.45-grsec #1 SMP Thu May 23
08:37:40 CDT 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

An it's Apache / Wordpress --

All I think they need to to do is pecl install pdo_pgsql-1.0.2

But that looks for pg_config and libpg-fe.h which means installing
postgresql-devel as well.

They are not willing to this, as "it might break another customer" .

Anyway, I Am now looking for new host instead of fixing this one..
