Installing and Configuring ADOdb and DBAL

Edit the file typo3conf/localconf.php and append “adodb,dbal” to the comma-separated list of extensions found in $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['EXT']. Another option is to add following code to the end of the file:

$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['EXT']['extList'] .= ',adodb,dbal';

Now add following code to the end of the same file typo3conf/localconf.php:

$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['EXTCONF']['dbal']['handlerCfg'] = array(
   '_DEFAULT' => array(
       'type' => 'adodb',
       'config' => array(
           'driver' => 'postgres',
       )
   ),
);
