Wampserver: problems to load php_pdo_pgsql and php_pgsql modules

Wampserver has a problem when loading php_pdo_pgsql and php_pgsql modules. After searching on several forums the solution is to download from http://www.bmedon.net/download.html both .dll files and overwrite the existing ones.

The problem is that it didn't work! I checked all php.ini files. I followed http://diego-loquese.blogspot.com/2010/12/conectar-wampserver-con-postgresql.html instructions (which is a summary of all the forums I found).

I am using WampServer 2.2 for Windows x64 with PHP 5.4.3

  1. Install PostgreSQL

  2. Edit php.ini, uncomment “extension=php_pgsql.dll”. Check both the php.ini in the PHP folder and Apache folder

  3. Edit environment variables, add PostgreSQL /bin and /lib directories to Path. This solves the issue of php_pgsql.dll not loading due to it not being able to resolve dependencies.

  4. Done. PHP should now be able to communicate with PostgreSQL.

Just copy the libpq.dll from your php directory to the apache bin directory.

You have to load libpq.dll that comes with php, in the httpd.conf like this:

LoadFile "c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.4.3/libpq.dll"

It worked for me
