  • Open the file <Unzip <FlexDeploy Unzip Folder>/database/postgres/install/scripts/CreateSchemas.sql

Step 2. Install PostgreSQL database, if you have not done that already. Follow guidelines for your platform as documented in PostgreSQL documentation.

Database name is setup as flexdeploy various documentation steps, you are free to use different name. If you use database name other than flexdeploy, then consider following points.

  1. Modify commands below appropriately for different database name.
  2. Modify <FlexDeploy Unzip Folder>/database/postgres/install/scripts/CreateSchemas.sql, statement "GRANT CONNECT ON DATABASE flexdeploy TO FD_ADMIN;" should be modified for proper database name.
  3. Adjust JDBC URL in context.xml appropriately.
