Following an identical procedure PHP fails to compile if referring to the includes for
the latest version of postgreSQL.  Its fine with earlier PostgreSQL versions though...


gcc  -DLINUX=2 -DUSE_HSREGEX -DSERVER_SUBVERSION=\"PHP/3.0\" `./apaci`    \
      -o httpd buildmark.o modules.o modules/standard/libstandard.a modules/php3/libphp3.a main/libmain.a ./os/unix/libos.a ap/libap.a regex/libregex.a  -lm -Lmodules/php3 -L../modules/php3 -lmodphp3 -lgdbm -lm -ldl                 -L/usr/local/pgsql/lib -lpq    
modules/php3/libphp3.a(pgsql.o): In function `php3_pgsql_do_connect':
/root/php-3.0/functions/pgsql.c:248: undefined reference to `PQsetdbLogin'
/root/php-3.0/functions/pgsql.c:274: undefined reference to `PQsetdbLogin'
/root/php-3.0/functions/pgsql.c:321: undefined reference to `PQsetdbLogin'
make[2]: *** [target_static] Error 1

I see no reason why a binary compiled with an earlier version of postgres would fail to 
access a newer posgres database but this may cause a problem I am unaware of...

It's definitely bugging!

Cheers!

Looks like you're compiling PHP with a set of PostgreSQL headers from one release (6.3.x) and linking with libraries from another release
(6.1.x).  The libpq library from PostgreSQL 6.3 contains PQsetdbLogin:

15:21 bourbon-ttya6 bourbon:~/php3/cgi> nm /usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.a | grep PQsetdbLogin
00000410 T PQsetdbLogin

About PHP compiled using PostgreSQL 6.1 not working with a 6.3 server - that's the PostgreSQL's guys "fault".  It's not really a fault
since I don't think they ever said it's supposed to work - the communications protocol probably changed in both 6.2 and 6.3.
Needing to recompile and relink with the new headers and libraries isn't rare.
