[Solved] Webtools not working with Postgres (app is working)

I have an app that is working with Postgres, but the developer tools webtools.php won't work (it's trying to connect to MySQL).

Here is my config.ini:

[database]
host     = localhost
username = postgres
password = 
name     = databasename
schema   = public

Here is my index.php

$di->set('db', function() use ($config) {
        return new \Phalcon\Db\Adapter\Pdo\Postgresql(array(
            "host" => $config->database->host,
            "username" => $config->database->username,
            "password" => $config->database->password,
            "dbname" => $config->database->name,
            "schema" => $config->database->schema
        ));
});

This is the output I get from the webtools (notice #0 is trying to connect to MySQL):

PDOException: could not find driver
  #0 [internal function]: PDO->__construct('mysql:host=loca...', 'postgres', '', Array)
  #1 [internal function]: Phalcon\Db\Adapter\Pdo->connect(Array)

  #13 {main}

Thanks

I was able to get it working.

I didn't have "adapter" configured in the config.ini or index.php. I also had "name" in config.ini, when it should have been "dbname" (the app worked fine, but the dev tools caught that).

New config.ini:

[database]
adapter  = Postgresql
host     = localhost
username = postgres
password = 
dbname     = databasename
schema   = public

New index.php:

$di->set('db', function() use ($config) {
        return new \Phalcon\Db\Adapter\Pdo\Postgresql(array(
            'adapter' => $config->database->adapter,
            'host' => $config->database->host,
            'username' => $config->database->username,
            'password' => $config->database->password,
            'dbname' => $config->database->dbname,
            'schema' => $config->database->schema
        ));
    });

Correction, the index.php shouldn't have the adapter declaration, but the config should:

$di->set('db', function() use ($config) {
return new \Phalcon\Db\Adapter\Pdo\Postgresql(array(
'host' => $config->database->host,
'username' => $config->database->username,
'password' => $config->database->password,
'dbname' => $config->database->dbname,
'schema' => $config->database->schema
));
});

Hello, he change is in services.php

From: use Phalcon\Db\Adapter\Pdo\Mysql as DbAdapter;

To: use Phalcon\Db\Adapter\Pdo\Postgresql as DbAdapter;

and the app work fine.
