[PHP-DB] PDOException: could not find driver (postgres)
What could be causing this please? Going direct, using pg_connect, is
not a problem.
The code in question looks like
$pdo = new PDO('pgsql:host=localhost;port=5432;dbname=mydb', 'dbuser',
'dbpass');
(I think - I've yet to be able to debug it down to a single line)

Seems like a simple missing driver problem. Make sure you have the PDO
postgres driver enabled in your php.ini, it does not use the same driver
as the Postgres extension.

[PHP-DB] session management
Hey Guys, I need some help on an effficient session management, right now what I do is check if the user has loggedin using his username, and create a SESSION['logged']=1, setting a login flag actually, I am not sure if this is the best way ? What do you guys use for sessions, and which is the best possible way ? Thanks, Vinay
Re: [PHP-DB] session management
How secure would you want it? Is this is a public facing web application? Are you in a shared hosting environment vs. a dedicated hosting environment? Do you require alternative session management such as database or mcache vs. flat file session support? Have you thought about cross site request forgery's? session hijacking etc? There are tons of things to take into consideration but setting a flag per user session is indeed one method of ensuring a user has authenticated.

Re: [PHP-DB] session management
Hi Jason, Yes this is going to be a public facing application with 3 level heirarchy, and maybe around 100 tiny companies(3-4 employees) using it. App is going to be on a Hosted Server. DB session mgmt would be a bit slower, is it? I have thought about cross site forgery and session hijacking, but the more I think about it, I realize the lesser I know about it all :( So thought this would be the best place to start.
