Re: Mysql version database dump for version 2.9

 

Hi Knut,

Thanks so much for the useful information, I am on Ubuntu 12.04, so I will definitely try it out. I will share my experience with the community, on a second note , there is the issue of the dependencies failing to be resolved, especially the org.hisp, I am from Zimbabwe I am not sure if it has anything to do with my location.

Overall though, I do recommend just trying Postgres - for basic use it
is not too different from MySql.

If you are on Windows, get the installer from here:

Since you're not changing the source, just get the latest dhis.war
file from here:

I suppose if your usage of the Web API is relatively limited, you
could perhaps connect directly to our online demo (though this is not
a good idea if you are planning some heavy testing).

As for converting the Postgres demo db to Mysql, I think Mysql used to
come with some free importing/converting tools that could do that, but
did not find anything about this through a quick googling now.
Commercial tools like Navicat should handle it well. If you do convert
it, pls share.

Best,
Knut

Hi Knut,

I want to use the DHIS2 Web API in another applications , without doing
anything to the DHIS2 core code, so I just want to setup DHIS as quickly as
possible , which means just the war file and the dump. The main issue I have
with setting DHIS from code is that maven is failing to resolve all
dependencies hosted on org.hisp domain.

Thanks,

Hi, to start with your own data, just connect to an empty mysql db. The dump
is just for the demo data. What is your use case?

Hi all,

Please assist, we want to run DHIS 2.9 on mysql, been searching for the
dump but only finding the postgress version. We want to avoid postgress as
we do not have personnel experienced in it.

Regards,
