After installed php5-pgsql on Ubuntu using the command

sudo apt-get install php5-pgsql

I couldn't find pgsql.so file in php.ini, when i do a 

 locate pgsql.so

nothing returns. So anyone knows why the installation shows successful, but the module file doesn't exist?

Try to locate the file by issuing dpkg -L:

$ dpkg -L php5-pgsql | grep .so
/usr/lib/php5/20121212/pgsql.so
/usr/lib/php5/20121212/pdo_pgsql.so

Also, note that locate command acts over a database that must be updated by previously executing updatedb.

  • it works, but when i add pgsql.so to php.ini and try to connect to database, i get an error "Call to undefined function pg_connect()", which means the module is not installed – user2628641 Mar 21 '16 at 21:11
