Omega Base - How to Install

To install Omega Base you need Tomcat at least version 7 and PostgreSQL 
at least 9.0.

Earlier version of Omega Base had a interactive installer, but because 
of its errors, it was supressed in 1.0.9. It's better to make a manual 
installation.


1-) PostgreSQL Configuration.
You will need to create a database on PostgreSQL if you don't have one to.
If you have one, you can upgrade it will keeping your data. But I would say: 
make a backup first for your safety.

-Open Pgadmin3. Check the version you have of the db. You can see the version
checking in table "configuration" column "db_version". This table always have 
just one row.

-If your installation is new, run all the SQL files in next step. If it exists, 
but the column doesn´t exists, start with SQL file 1.

-With pgadmin3, open the SQL files from the version you have of the db, 
run them from the (db_version+1) from you have, in numeric sequence.

2-) Tomcat Configuration.
Put omegabase.war on Tomcat dir\webapps. After this you need to configure 
Tomcat 's connection to PostgreSQL.

-Edit file <Tomcat dir>\conf\Catalina\localhost\omegabase.xml. Tomcat 
must create it.
-Change the XML attributes url, username and password to the PostgreSQL
installation. Of course you can change other parameters, like the connection
pool.

3-) Login.
The new installation´s default user is "administrator" and the password "changeit".
You must change this for security.
