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.
