Can you do the Debian-based steps as well? Or, would you be willing to check this section out: http://support.eidolonhost.com/wiki/Ves ... on_VestaCP

Not entirely sure if this will work for Debian-based servers. Unfortunately, I'm not near my test lab for VestaCP, so I can't quite confirm if the steps'll work for Debian-based systems... but I've done what I could.

KeiroD, howto worked like a charm.
I have uploaded pg_hba.conf to debian and ubuntu config directory. So wget command should look like

Code: Select all

wget http://c.vestacp.com/0.9.8/debian/pg_hba.conf -O /var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main/pg_hba.conf

Thank you

Beautiful, glad to hear it worked perfectly for you as well. :) I'll be updating my guide here shortly to account for that.

Edit: Note: Each time VestaCP updates their software, this section of the guide will be updated to account for this. However, if you want to update the system's configuration without waiting for us to update the guide, simply substitute 0.9.8 for VestaCP for the newest version of VestaCP and then, for Postgresql, replace 9.1 for the newest version of PostgreSQL.

This was appended to the specific wget section for VestaCP/PostgreSQL.

Feel free to use the wiki format so far as a basis for your own wiki. Or, y'know, set up the wiki similarly to my company's wiki and we can contribute to the wiki.

Hi Guys,

I have a related problem - I simply need to connect to a remote Postgres instance, not set one up.

My app is throwing this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function pg_connect()

When I run: yum install php-pgsql (after yum update)

I get this error:

Code: Select all

Error: Package: php-pgsql-5.3.3-46.el6_6.x86_64 (updates)
           Requires: php-common(x86-64) = 5.3.3-46.el6_6
           Installed: php-common-5.4.36-1.el6.remi.x86_64 (@remi)
               php-common(x86-64) = 5.4.36-1.el6.remi
           Available: php-common-5.3.3-40.el6_6.x86_64 (base)
               php-common(x86-64) = 5.3.3-40.el6_6
           Available: php-common-5.3.3-46.el6_6.x86_64 (updates)
               php-common(x86-64) = 5.3.3-46.el6_6

I didn't want to downgrade/switch php version for fear of messing things up - is there another way to achieve what I'm looking to do?

Hello loving the VestaCP

This thread is 9.1 but the PostgreSQL is now 9.4
On Debian we get

# apt-get install postgresql postgresql-server postgresql-contrib
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package postgresql-server

Please could you guide us through install this and the phppgadmin
to an already install vesta CP on Debian 8 Jessie
