Hi there,

I recently completely uninstalled all components of MySQL and PostgreSQL on my Mac running OS 10.6.8. I then installed MAMP stack 5.3.6 and the PostgreSQL 5.3.6-0 addon. My objective is use both MySQL and PostgreSQL. I was under the impression that things should work seamlessly, but out of the box there seems to be problem. When attempting to use use PHP Admin via this URL (launched by PosgreSQL module installer): http://localhost:8080/phppgadmin/ the following error message is delivered:

"Your PHP installation does not support PostgreSQL. You need to recompile PHP using the --with-pgsql configure option."

I am relatively non-technical but I will delve under the hood if needed, but the objective of installing these stacks was to avoid that sort of thing. Any feedback on how to get things working would be welcome.

Thanks

After installing the module you may need to restart the Apache server. You can use the "manager-osx" graphical tool to do that.

Thanks Beltrán.

That worked. However, I'm now having an issue with phpMyAdmin. Th edefault user name is the character set: U����qO>����7u

When I change it to Administrator and type in the correct password it fails. Any suggestions?

Thanks, Byron

Actually I just used "root" as the user and it worked. Thanks again.

Yes, the "administrator" login was the default login in the past. New Stack credentials are "root" and the password that you set during the installation.
