Hi all,
I trying to install matrix 3.18 on FreeBSD
In 2 step I have this error:
[codebox]# php install/step_02.php /usr/local/www/apache22/mysource_matrix
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'Could not create database connection: DBError!:could not find driver' in /usr/local/www/apache22/mysource_matrix/core/include/mysource.inc:2186

As I can see in this error there is a problem with driver for pgsql but php
is compiled with support for pgsql and PDO 
Any idea what is wrong??
Best Regards,
Arek
You need the PDO-pgsql driver. PDO doesn't use PHP's pgsql driver, it has its own.
Hi Avi 
I found in ports tree pdo_pgsql and now I have installed matrix
