Hi Bob,

I have not tested all combinations of postgresql and postgis versions.

However, according to the docs, PostGIS 2.2 works against PostgreSQL 9.1
and later:

http://postgis.net/docs/manual-2.2/postgis_installation.html#install_requirements

We have of course tested DHIS 2 against PostGIS 2.2, so this should be safe.

Lars
