Call to undefined function after clicking "Skip Registration"

First, my problem:
After I click "Skip Registration", I get:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_escape_string() in /var/www/html/lib/ezdb/classes/ezmysqldb.php on line 525
Fatal error: eZ publish did not finish it's request
The execution of eZ publish was abruptly ended, the debug output is present below.

No debugging information is displayed. I don't use MySQL, so I'm a little confused. I've tried looking through the code, but it's a little over my head. Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone have an answer?

TIA

Next, my setup:
- Red Hat Linux 8.0
- Apache 2.0.40 (default installation)
- PHP 4.2.2 (default installation)
- PostgreSQL 7.2.3
- eZ publish 3.1 Beta 1

What's important?
- Using the original Red Hat source RPM, I compiled PostgreSQL and changed NAMEDATALEN to 64 (the Red Hat build defaults to 32).
- I unpacked the eZ publish source to /var/www/html and edited kernel/sql/postgresql/cleandata.sql to remove all the SELECT statements.
- On another machine, I setup eZ publish using the web interface.

Hm, sounds strange. I've never tried it out on an installation without MySQL only with both MySQL and PostgreSQL.
My guess is that the mysql driver is activated somehow before the postgresql driver is used. Mysql is the default choice in the site.ini file.

Could you try to edit site.ini and change the
DatabaseImplementation=ezmysql
to
DatabaseImplementation=ezpostgresql

We'll have to try this out a bit to figure out where the problem lies.

Jan's fix is a workaround. The problem was database initializing with the site.ini settings.

I've just commited a fix for this in revision 2705, fix will be in 3.1 final.

I just confirmed the workaround indeed does work. Thank you very much.
