I'm testing my second PostgreSQL install on Xunutu 12.04 after a disk crash.
Everything went well using command line where i was able, after config and setup, to log into a db using :
$ psql <IPV4 or IPV6 of the server> -U yt -d yt_tests
Then i wanted to test postgres thru php where i got Http error 500.
After that i discovered that i do have TWO psql installed :
the first :
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 37 mars 6 2012 /usr/bin/psql -> ../share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper
the second :
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 433224 août 17 00:58 /usr/lib/postgresql/9.1/bin/psql
the first is working not the second :
yt@D620 $ sudo -s -u postgres
[sudo] password for yt:
zsh: locking failed for /home/yt/.zsh_history: permission non accordée: reading anyway
using the first one :
postgres@D620 $ /usr/bin/psql
psql (9.1.5)
Type "help" for help.
postgres=# \q
using the second :
postgres@D620 $ /usr/lib/postgresql/9.1/bin/psql
psql: server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
could not send startup packet: Relais brisé (pipe)
zsh: exit 2 /usr/lib/postgresql/9.1/bin/psql
then, i wonder how to workaround this "installation bugg" because i suspect php is using the second not working psql where the first is the one being in my PATH.
