my currently extension folder in php is ( executing php-config --extension-dir)

/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20100525

Inside this directory i have my postgresql extensions that i need to load

-rwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel   32940 Feb 25 17:12 pdo_pgsql.so
-rwxrwxrwx  1 root  wheel  135652 Feb 25 23:55 pgsql.so

On the php.ini that is shown by phpinfo() i have this lines uncommented 

extension=pdo_pgsql.so
extension=pgsql.so

Php and postgre were installed with brew. And i "make" both pgsql.so and pdo_pgsql.so with the php source files corresponding to my actual version which is 5.6.5

Every time i call pg_connect it shows me a fatal error 

Fatal error: Call to undefined function pg_connect()

Solution

The version i had wasn´t built with the --with-postgresql option in brew so i uninstalled the php56 and then reinstalled it with the option mentioned before following all the instructions

https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-php

You can get the post installation insctructions with brew info php56 in my case.

With the php built with postgresql you don´t need to add the pgsql.so and pdo_pgsql.so extensions in the php.ini file.

Thanks! Additionally: the PDO extension can be installed with $ brew install php56-pdo-pgsql.
In fact, you can just brew reinstall php56 --with-postgresql to add support with uninstalling

Updating the php version worked for me:

curl -s http://php-osx.liip.ch/install.sh | bash -s 5.6
