Re: Installation of DHIS2 on Windows 10 Laptop

 

Hi Francis,

It is still connecting to H2 instead of Postgres (database type: H2).

One possibility is that this is because your file has aquired an unwanted
extension like .txt. It looks to you as if it is called dhis.conf, but in
reality it is called dhis.conf.txt

You can also just delete the top rows in dhis.conf, those that relate to H2.

Knut
