trying to connect to db provides blank page - El Forum - 02-09-2010

Hello,
I am trying to test the connection with a new database, when I load the db in my welcome controller like:
Code:
$this->db = $this->load->database('default', TRUE);All I receive is a blank page, not the default welcome_message view. When I comment out this line I receive the page. I'm assuming that means there is a connection error, but even with error_reporting(E_ALL) nothing is shown. Any ideas how I can make return an error if present?
Using Postgre database.
Thanks

can you post your database.php config file if you don't mind it ? values are not important here as we assume they are right ....

Do you have php5-pgsql installed?

Got it worked out, had to place the program on the server and connect through localhost, rather than connecting on my desktop LAMP environment. thank you
