Thread-topic: MySQL for DHIS

Hi all,

We have a partner who would strongly prefer to use MySQL instead of Postgres as the DHIS 2.21 database. The DHIS documentation notes that MySQL can be used but doesn't give much detail beyond the connection strings.

Does anyone in this group have experience with using MySQL for DHIS? Has it been reliable? Do you have to do any manual configuration that you wouldn't do with Postgres?

Thanks,
Becky
