Id quite like to provide Pgsql to our customers.

Now I dont know how big a project it would be adding as a pluggin or not.

Obveously if someone from Dark Orb offered to write a plugin for cpanel I would be very happy :D

If not, how many people would be interested in a PgSQL plugin? Id like to say this would be my first play around with PgSQL so it would be a use at your own risk type of thing - but if anyone is interested, let me know.

The most fun part will be getting a cpanel interface for it :eek:

phpPgAdmin is available for PostgreSQL so it is somewhat similar to phpMyAdmin considering it is by the same people.

PgSQL is quite a bit different to mySQL. mySQL has a lot of its own extensions to the SQL language added.

Ive installed PgSQL and done something like creating a database with it - but thats about it.

With a bit of looking through the manual I cant see it being that hard to create a management section in cpanel for it, or could it <eek> hehe

Adding PGSQL support integrated with cpanel would be a good thing so people can have alternative.... I hope it is planned for the future for cpanel / nocsoft

I decided not to make the plug-in as there wasnt a demand for it :O

[/quote:014284bf01]Does that mean that it would be almost impossible to implement it in Cpanel just the same as IMAP currently not being available? ;) Both seem to be great features that may be adding value to Cpanel.

This is a feature that doesn't look interesting enough for hosts but could be very interesting to would-be clients.
It's one of these features that you don't realise you need, until you actually have it ;)

Has someone submitted a bug about it in CPanel's bugzilla ?
That would help :)
I just submitted a feature request there, about PHP supporting GNU GetText, for example.

You have my vote for PostgreSQL :). I'm sure not many clients would use it, but still it gives another great advantage to Cpanel....now there's a different thing it has to be done in a secure way so the users can't abuse it
