Recently contacted the installation of PostgreSQL, and share with you.
First, Introduction
PostgreSQL is a very complex object-relational database management system (ORDBMS), and is currently the most powerful, feature richest and most complex free software database system. Some features don't even have a commercial database. The Berkeley-based database research program has now become an international development project and has a very wide range of users.

Official website: http://www.postgresql.org/(official website has various packages and instructions, very detailed)
Two or three types of installation process
A. RPM Package Installation
1. Check if PostgreSQL is installed
Rpm-qa|grep Postgres
If it is already installed, uninstall it using the RPM-E command.
2. Download RPM Package
#wget http://yum.postgresql.org/9.2/redhat/rhel-6-i386/postgresql92-contrib-9.2.4-1PGDG.rhel6.i686.rpm
#wget http://yum.postgresql.org/9.2/redhat/rhel-6-i386/postgresql92-libs-9.2.4-1PGDG.rhel6.i686.rpm
#wget https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/9.6/redhat/rhel-7-x86_64/pgdg-centos96-9.6-3.noarch.rpm
3. Install PostgreSQL, pay attention to the installation sequence
# RPM-IVH postgresql92-libs-9.2.4-1pgdg.rhel6.i686.rpm
# RPM-IVH postgresql92-9.2.4-1pgdg.rhel6.i686.rpm
# RPM-IVH postgresql92-server-9.2.4-1pgdg.rhel6.i686.rpm
# RPM-IVH postgresql92-contrib-9.2.4-1pgdg.rhel6.i686.rpm
4. Initializing the PostgreSQL library
The PostgreSQL service will prompt for initialization when it first starts.
# service postgresql-9.2 Initdb
5. Start the service
# service postgresql-9.2 Start
6. Add the PostgreSQL service to the startup list
# chkconfig Postgresql-9.2on
# chkconfig--list|grep Postgres
7. Modify the password of the PostgreSQL database user Postgres (note that it is not a Linux system account)
The PostgreSQL database is created by default to create a Postgres database user as the administrator of the database, the default password is empty, we need to change to the specified password, which is set to ' Postgres '.
# Su-postgres
$ psql
# Alteruser Postgres with PASSWORD ' postgres ';
# Select*from Pg_shadow;
B. Yum Installation
1. Uninstall the PostgreSQL that you just installed
#/etc/init.d/postgresql-9.2 Stop//Stop PostgreSQL Service
To view installed packages
# Rpm-qa|grep Postgres
Unloading
# RPM-E postgresql92-server-9.2.4-1pgdg.rhel6.i686
# RPM-E postgresql92-contrib-9.2.4-1pgdg.rhel6.i686
# RPM-E postgresql92-9.2.4-1pgdg.rhel6.i686
# RPM-E postgresql92-libs-9.2.4-1pgdg.rhel6.i686
2. Yum Installation
If the default Yum installation is installed, the lower version of PostgreSQL 8.4 will be installed, which does not meet our requirements.
We use the PostgreSQL Yum Repository to install the latest version of PostgreSQL.
2.1 Installing PostgreSQL Yum Repository
# rpm-i http://yum.postgresql.org/9.2/RedHat/rhel-6-x86_64/pgdg-redhat92-9.2-7.noarch.rpm
2.2 Installing a new version of PostgreSQL
# yum Install Postgresql92-server Postgresql92-contrib
2.3 Viewing the installation
3. Initialize and start the database
Configuration file:/var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf
4. Testing
Other steps such as a way.
C. Source Package Installation
1. Download PostgreSQL Source code
wget http://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/source/v9.0.3/postgresql-9.0.3.tar.bz2
wget https://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/source/v9.6.2/postgresql-9.6.2.tar.bz2
2. Unzip the file
Tar xjvf postgresql-9.0.3.tar.bz2
3. Enter the directory after decompression
CD postgresql-9.0.3/
4. Check the Install
The short version section of the install file explains how to install PostgreSQL commands, requirements section describes the Lib that is dependent on the installation of PostgreSQL, long, first configure try, if error occurs, Then you need to check whether the requirements requirements are met.
Short Version
./configure
Gmake
Su
Gmake Install
AddUser Postgres
Mkdir/usr/local/pgsql/data
Chown Postgres/usr/local/pgsql/data
Su-postgres
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb-d/usr/local/pgsql/data
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres-d/usr/local/pgsql/data >logfile 2>&1 &
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/createdb Test
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql Test
5. Execute the command of short version in the install file and start compiling and installing the Postgrepsql database.
./configure--prefix=/usr/local/pgsql--with-perl--with-python--with-libxml--with-libxslt
Configure:error:readline Library not found
If you had readline already installed, see Config.log for details on the
Failure. It is possible the compiler isnt looking in the proper directory.
Yum Install-y readline-devel
(sudo apt-get install libreadline5-dev && sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev)
Configure:error:library ' XSLT ' is required for XSLT support
Yum Install libxslt Libxslt-devel
Configure:error:header file <Python.h> is required for Python
Yum Install Python Python-devel
Configure:error:could not determine the flags for linking embedded Perl.
Yum Install perl-extutils-embed
After installing the ReadLine package, re-configure, successful.
6. Make
7. Make Install
8. Add User Postgres
Useradd Postgres
9. Create a database File storage folder
Mkdir/usr/local/pgsql/data
#mkdir/data/pgsql
10. Permissions to change the folder of the previously created data directory
Chown Postgres/usr/local/pgsql/data
#chown Postgres/data/pgsql
11. Switch Users
Su-postgres
12. Bind database File storage directory
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb-d/usr/local/pgsql/data
#export path= $PATH:/usr/local/pgsql/bin/
#/usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb-d/data/pgsql
13. Start the database
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres-d/usr/local/pgsql/data >logfile 2>&1
[1] 18635
#/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres-d/data/pgsql >logfile 2>&1
[1] 18635
14. Create DATABASE Test
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/createdb Test
15. Connect to test Database
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql Test
Psql (9.0.3)
Type ' help ' for help.
test=#
16. CREATE TABLE table1
test=# CREATE TABLE table1 (
Test (# ID Integer
Test (#);
CREATE TABLE
test=#
17. Insert a record into the Table1 table
test=# INSERT INTO table1 values (1);
INSERT 0 1
18. Query the record you just inserted
test=# select * FROM table1;
Id
----
1
Third, client Installation
Because for us postgre application is very small, simply to learn his command line, for our time management is not too appropriate.
So we can go to download a client, do some simple operation, recommend Navicat website to download PostgreSQL client;
