I sucessfully installed the cygwin version of postgres on Windows ME (using
latest version of cygwin distro).

I can connect to the postgres server and create databases using psql.

I am now trying to connect to it from PHP.

I downloaded the latest development snapshot from php4win (php-4.0.7-dev).

I am running php as a module on my windows platform using a recent version
of Apache as the HTTP server.

I configured the relevant extension info in my php.ini

extension_dir = c:/php-4.0.7/extensions/
extension=php_pgsql.dll

I copied all the dlls in the dll directory to my windows/system folder.

I cannot connect to my running postgres server.

I lauched postgres with the following command:

/usr/share/postmaster -i -h 127.0.0.1 -D /usr/share/postgresql/data

Test script:

<?php
$dbconn = pg_connect("host=127.0.0.1 host=5432 dbname=mydb");
?>

Gives me this error:

Warning: Unable to connect to PostgreSQL server: connectDBStart() --
unknown hostname: 127.0.0.1 in c:\apache\htdocs\pg.php on line 2

Any ideas on what I might do to fix the error?

Also, has anybody gotten Postgres and PHP to work together on a Windows ME
setup (or win 98, 95?)?

Regards,
Paul
