[Cdash] Postgres install getting Fatal error: Call to a member function query() on a non-object : Solved

[Julien Jomier]

Chris,

It seems that CDash cannot connect to the database, maybe because the 
username/password are incorrect.

Try adding this to the line 254 in pdo.php

catch(PDOException $e)
   {
   print_r($e); // line to add
   return false;
   }

and see if that gives some information.
I'm having some more issues installing the PGSQL database and I'm 
currently tracking them down, if you have any more issues let us know.
