tiki-install.php & postgresql

posts: 2 Germany

Hi,

I'm trying to install tikiwiki 1.8.5 on my gentoo system. I use postgresql 7.4.7, apache 2.0.52 and php 4.3.10. Everything installed by gentoo's portage system. Next I followed the instructions TikiPostgres by mose excluding the tarball step. Then I browsed to tiki-install.php and filled out the form. Unfortunately Submit only results in Tiki cannot find a database connection.

With psql I can connect to the database all right; mod_php is compiled with postgres support so I'm not sure why it fails.

Is there any possibility to get a more verbose error message? Or is this a known problem? With a known solution even?

Thanks in advance

If you are wanting Postgres in a tiki like environment, then I really recommend you use http://tikipro.org instead. There is no active Postgres developer at the moment in Tiki community, and many postgres problems still exist with indexes and the like.

Yeah thanks but still: Is there a way to get more info on why it failed; e.g. by running some of the scripts directly with php, enabling some debug switch or some such. I'm willing to spend a couple more hours on this :-)
