Hi,

in dhis version 2.29 we require PostgreSQL as the database platform,
together with the PostGIS spatial extension. This means that MySQL is no
longer supported.

The minimum version required is PostgreSQL 9.1. However we recommend
upgrading to a later version as we plan to take advantage of some of the
useful features part of PostgreSQL 10 such as logical replication and
native partitioning in future versions of DHIS 2.

You can read more here:
