Automated Installer Instructions
If you are using the automated installer, do not follow this guide.
Manual Schema Creation
| Tip |
|---|
You must be in /database/postgres/install folder from extracted zip when executing scripts. |
FlexDeploy uses three
...
schemas (FD, FF, and FD_ADMIN) in the database and performs all work using the FD_ADMIN user. Run database scripts from where you extracted downloaded FlexDeploy zip file.
...
Installation Instructions
Navigate to the /database/postgres/install directory.
...
Step 1. You should set the FD_ADMIN password before running the scripts.
Open the file <FlexDeploy Unzip Folder>/database/postgres/install/scripts/
...
CreateSchemas.sql
Edit the line: CREATE USER FD_ADMIN with password 'welcome1'; so that it has a new password in it.
| Info |
|---|
You should record the FD_ADMIN password, as that will be used in configuration of data source on application server. |
Step 2. Install PostgreSQL database, if you have not done that already. Follow guidelines for your platform as documented in PostgreSQL documentation.
Step 3. Create flexdeploy database.
| Info |
|---|
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.
|
These are high level steps, you can find more detailed steps in PostgreSQL documentation.

Step 4. Create FlexDeploy schema objects.
Open a command prompt or putty window
...
to the <FlexDeploy Unzip Folder>/database/postgres/install folder from extracted zip, launch psql (use full path if not available on PATH environment)
Run as a user like postgres
...
with privileges to create users and
...
schemas within that database. You may be prompted for password, enter password for user (with -U argument) that you use in psql command.
