    Creating database

    Advanced users can create their own table space

    We are going to create a database for CloverDX and a user role which will own the database. This user role will be then used by the Server to access the database.

    Database name: clover_db

    User: clover

    Password: clover

    1. Optionally, you can create a new tablespace

    2. Connect as postgres (default admin) to the default DB postgres and execute the following commands:

      CREATE USER clover ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'clover';
      CREATE DATABASE clover_db OWNER clover;

    To separate the database into its own tablespace, create a tablespace before creating the database.

    and use the following command to create the database:

    CREATE DATABASE clover_db OWNER clover TABLESPACE tablespace_name;

    For more information, see the PostgreSQL documentation.

    CloverDX Server setup

    Example of a properties file configuration:

    jdbc.driverClassName=org.postgresql.Driver
    jdbc.url=jdbc:postgresql://localhost/clover_db?charSet=UTF-8
    jdbc.username=clover
    jdbc.password=clover
    jdbc.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect

    Add a JDBC 4 compliant driver on the classpath. A JDBC driver which doesn’t meet the JDBC 4 specifications won’t work properly.

    The JDBC driver for PostgreSQL can be downloaded from the official PostgreSQL page.

    Example for Apache Tomcat: place the libraries into the TOMCAT/lib directory.
