PostgreSQL Elephant

 

PostgreSQL is a powerful, open source object-relational database system. It has more than 15 years of active development and a proven architecture that has earned it a strong reputation for reliability, data integrity, and correctness.

I am going to share few steps on how to install PostgreSQL 9.4 on Ubuntu 14.04.

First, check the version of Ubuntu:

1
lsb_release -sc

You need to add the latest PostgreSQL repository for the latest version, otherwise It will install PostgreSQL 9.3. This is for trusty version.

1
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ trusty-pgdg main"

Update and Install PostgreSQL 9.4:

1
2
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.4

Default postgres super user and postgres database is created. You need to set a password for the postgres super user.

1
2
3
4
ubuntu@:~$ sudo passwd postgres
Enter new UNIX password:****
Retype new UNIX password:****
passwd: password updated successfully

If service is not started, you can start the PostgreSQL service.

1
sudo service postgresql start

Connect PostgreSQL server using postgres user:

1
2
ubuntu@:~$ su postgres
Password:****

Create a sample database:

1
createdb database_name

Connect to that database:

1
psql -d database_name

Create a sample table:

1
create table Test (rno integer);

Exit to database session:

1
\q

Exit to PostgreSQL server:

1
exit
