Trouble installing Joomla 4.13 with Postgresql

Post by timdang2000 » Sun May 15, 2022 10:01 pm

Hi All, I try to install joomla on localhost with Apache web server and Postgresql 12 as the back end. I use the web installer when it goes to database configuration. It doesn't have the postgresql choice to choose only MySqli and MySQL (PD0). Do anyone have or know any instruction on how to install Joomla with Postgresql? Thanks in advance.

Check your server setup I suggest. Do you have the PostgreSQL PDO Driver installed?

I have PDO Driver installed. From phpinfo:

Code: Select all

PostgreSQL driver for PDO 	Edin Kadribasic, Ilia Alshanetsky
PostgreSQL 	Jouni Ahto, Zeev Suraski, Yasuo Ohgaki, Chris Kings-Lynne 
but the choice is still only between MySQL (PDO) and MySQLi only. No PostgreSQL

Is the PDO_Postgre php module loaded in php.ini?

For a Cpanel server you can select it there.

I have uncommented this in php.ini

Code: Select all

extension=pdo_pgsql
extension=pgsql

[PostgreSQL]
pgsql.allow_persistent=On
pgsql.auto_reset_persistent=Off
pgsql.max_persistent=-1
pgsql.max_links=-1
pgsql.ignore_notice=0
pgsql.log_notice=0
Is this OK?
