Heroku postgres connection in PHP

Question

I have tried to connect to postgres the same way I connect to phpmyadmin but it seems that the connection fails.. What I did was to copy and paste my credentials into the php file.. I was wondering if i need to activate the postgres database before trying to connect?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.. Best..

What error message do you get?

You need to at least add the database to your app before it will be available - see this answer here. Have you been able to add the app and see the database credentials?
