[X-Unix] compiling php

[Giovanni Cutolo]

Eric and Alexander,

thank you both, I actually had not followed the phpize / make install  
procedure to compile the module; thus it was in a wrong location, and  
also my definition of extension_dir in php.ini was incorrect (now I  
have commented out it, so it is back that default, which is the  
strange-looking /usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613,  
where make installe placed the module).
The trouble is: it does still not work, the module is still not loaded  
(yes, after restarting apache, and my php.ini has the line  
extension=pgsql.so ).

Can it be a permission problem?

Thanks again.

Giovanni
