We are working on a Moodle-installation with PostgreSQL 8.1.x. In the Moodle-requirements (http://docs.moodle.org/en/Installing_Moodle#Requirements) it isn't really indicated whether PostgreSQL ist still completely supported in Moodle 1.6. Do you have any experiences concerning this configuration?

Kind regards
Thomas

Yes Postgres is fully supported. And it is being used by at least two large installations: here at the OU, and by Catalyst in New Zealand. Both have active moodle developers, so postgres breakage is likely to be noticed and fixed quickly.

Yes, Pg is supported, and we use 8.1 a lot (7.4 and higher are supported). Make sure you create your DB with utf-8 encoding, and enjoy!

Also: updated the wiki to clarify.
