I did not know that I had php5-pgsql installed. And it took me two hours to track down the problem.
On Ubuntu, the script asks me to select either "Postgres" or "Mysql" - I selected Mysql - at that point the script should check that I have php5-mysql installed. PLEASE NOTE: The script does not fail to connect with the database. It successfully creates an empty database (called moodle in my case). SO I GET NO ERROR MESSAGE FROM THE INSTALL SCRIPT. (Could it be that the script does not need php5-mysql ?). -- Blank pages in Moodle after install - failed to install php5-mysql https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234609 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
