Configuring Postgres database
|
|
=============================
|
|
|
|
These are instructions for setting up NNTPChan with Postgres as the data-storage system.
|
|
|
|
##Installing Postgres
|
|
|
|
Postgres on Debian (as root)
|
|
|
|
# install as root
|
|
apt-get install --no-install-recommends postgresql postgresql-client
|
|
|
|
##Configuring Postgres
|
|
|
|
Setting up postgres (as root)
|
|
|
|
# become postgres user
|
|
su postgres
|
|
# spawn postgres admin shell
|
|
psql
|
|
|
|
You'll get a prompt, enter the following:
|
|
|
|
CREATE ROLE srnd WITH LOGIN PASSWORD 'srnd';
|
|
CREATE DATABASE srnd WITH ENCODING 'UTF8' OWNER srnd;
|
|
\q
|
|
|
|
For demo purposes we'll use these credentials.
|
|
These are default values, please change them later.
|
|
|
|
###Important
|
|
|
|
These credentials assume you are going to run using a user called `srnd`, if your username you plan to run the daemon as is different please change `srnd` to your username.
