    I've been working to get 0.8.2 up. I chmoded and fixed pear paths and all, and now when I submit all the data on the install page, I get this:

    The installation script could not connect to the database (bug_tracker) on the host (localhost) using the specified username and password.
    Please check these details are correct and that the database already exists then retry.

    Don't know why. I'm using postgres with other apps and it is connecting there. I'm using the same username as others, I've tried with localhost and with the server name, with passwords and without. No change.

    Any ideas?

      It may have something to do with how php attempts to connect to postgres.  I'm not familiar enough with postgres to be sure, but you might try ensuring that the server is accepting tcp/ip connections from localhost.

      Make sure the file pgsql.so is being loaded by PHP.
