I think this may have been resolved by CONTRIB-623, since the install.xml will create the DB structures under postgresql, and $CFG->dbtype will tell MRBS that it is using postgresql

Yep, I would still ideally like to see that we could get rid of the various database files mysql.php, mysqli.php and pgsql.php; however, I suspect that project will have to wait until my next break. Peace - Anthony

Steve - OK, I managed to test it with postgres and it seems to be working with the latest commit. I renamed pgsql.php to postgres7.php since that is the driver name that Moodle uses. I also added in some checks to see if there was a custom port which in my case there was so I think it is working and will go ahead and resolve this. Peace - Anthony
