--So what does the log say?
aolserver log didn't complaint at all. It even binded port 80...

--Did AOLserver start?
strangely aolserver doesn't start. It doesn't run whenever I look for it via px auxww | grep aolserver

--What version of PG?
I am trying my luck with 7.2.3... but I have the feeling that I would be way better off running 7.1.3 (if ./configure worked...)

--What version of the PG driver (or where did you download it from, and when)?
pgdriver-2.0.1 This might be the problem! 2.3.0 doesn't install the same way as 2.0.1... It gives me a whole bunch of errors, whenever I alter the path of aolserver + gmake it...

--Is there anything interesting in the PG log?
/data/serverlog doesn't say a word!

I am still getting:

DEBUG: pq_recvbuf: unexpected EOF on client connection
Segmentation fault

Segmentation fault is never a good thing, unless you're doing it on purpose.

So what you're seeing is probably AOLserver segfaulting. It look like AOLserver tries to make a connection to PG, and then it dies, hence creating the unexpected EOF error from PG's part.

I'd say you most likely have a driver problem. Something is not right in your compilation or you have an older version of the driver.

You can download nspostgres from aolserver.sf.net these days. It's the most current version.
