企鹅电竞电脑直播教程:Install PostgreSQL 9 on CentOS : David Ghedin...

Install PostgreSQL 9 on CentOS

This post will cover installing and basic configuration of PostgreSQL 9.x on CentOS.

We will install PostgreSQL 9 using the PostgreSQL repository and yum.

The same procedure can be used to install PostgreSQL 9 on Red Hat and Fedora using the appropriate rpm.

Optionally, we'll also see how to install PostGIS.

As the directory structure of PostgreSQL has changed with the release of PostgreSQL 9, we will also look a look at how we can create symlinks to make life easier when installing software or modules that still expect the old directory structure.

Finally, for Webmin users, we will see how to configuring Webmin to manage PostgreSQL 9.

I am using CentOS 6, but the same procedure works for CentOS 5. Finally, if you are using Webmin, we will also show how to configure Webmin to manage PostgreSQL 9.

With the release of PostgreSQL 9, the directory structure of PostgreSQL has changed.

We will also creating symlinks (if needed) from the new PostgreSQL 9 file locations to the previous PostgreSQL 8 file locations.

If you are looking trying to install PostgreSQL 9 on cPanel, please see my post here.

We'll use the simplest method to install, which is the postrgres repo rpms.


1. Download and Install the PostgreSQL Repository


Download the latest production release for your distro here: http://yum.pgrpms.org/repopackages.php

The repo rpms are 32 and 64 bit specific.

Since I am installing on CentOS 6 x64, I will need:

http://yum.pgrpms.org/9.1/redhat/rhel-5-x86_64/pgdg-centos91-9.1-4.noarch.rpm

So, using wget:

wget http://yum.pgrpms.org/9.1/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/pgdg-centos91-9.1-4.noarch.rpm
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
[root@server1 ~]# wget http://yum.pgrpms.org/9.1/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/pgdg-centos91-9.1-4.noarch.rpm

  [root@server1 ~]#   

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Now, install the repo....
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
[root@server1 ~]# rpm -i pgdg-centos91-9.1-4.noarch.rpm  －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
We now need to edit the CentOS-Base.repo to exclude postgreql.

To do, so we simply edit CentOS-Base.repo and add 'exclude=postgresql*' to the [base] and [updates] sections:
[root@server1 ~]# cd /etc/yum.repos.d   

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]# vi CentOS-Base.repo  

 

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]# vi CentOS-Base.repo  

# remarked out baseurl= line instead.  

#  

#   

  

[base]   

name=CentOS-$releasever - Base   

mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os  

#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/   

gpgcheck=1   

gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6   

exclude=postgresql*  

 

#released updates   

[updates]   

name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates   

mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=updates  

#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/updates/$basearch/   

gpgcheck=1   

gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6   

exclude=postgresql*  

Now, let's use 'yum list' to check the packages that are now available.

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]# yum list postgres*

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]#  

3. Initialize and Start PostgreSQL 9.1


We can now initialize and Start PostgreSQL

NOTE: when using Webmin, please see 'Configuring Webmin to Manage PostgreSQL9 below:

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]# service postgresql-9.1 initdb   

Initializing database:                                     [  OK  ]   

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]#  

Start the PostgreSQL server:

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]# service postgresql-9.1 start   

Starting postgresql-9.1 service:                           [  OK  ]   

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]#  

If you encounter startup errors, check under /var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data/pg_log for clues.


4. Set PostgreSQL 9 Environment


The deault home directory for the user postgres is at /var/lib/pgsql

The bash_profile for the user postgres will look like this:

[ -f /etc/profile ] && source /etc/profile   

PGDATA=/var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data   

export PGDATA  

This contains a path for the data directory, but no path for the executable/binary directory. To ammend this, add the path as below:

[ -f /etc/profile ] && source /etc/profile   

PGDATA=/var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data   

export PGDATA   

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/usr/pgsql-9.1/bin   

export PATH  

Placing the binary directory in the path for postgres will allow you to invoke pg_ctl and other commands from the shell.


5. Set postgres Password


The superuser postgres has no password set by default.

To set the password, switch to postgres user:

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]# su - postgres  

Connect as postgres to the postgres database and set the password for user postgres using alter user as below:

-bash-4.1$ psql postgres postgres   

psql (9.1.1)   

Type "help" for help.   

postgres=# alter user postgres with password 'postgres';   

ALTER ROLE   

postgres=#  

6. Configure PostgreSQL 9 pg_hba.conf File
Locate your pg_hba.conf file under /var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data

On installation, your pg_hba.conf file will look like this:

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]# vi /var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data/pg_hba.conf  

# Put your actual configuration here  

# ----------------------------------  

#  

# If you want to allow non-local connections, you need to add more  

# "host" records.  In that case you will also need to make PostgreSQL  

# listen on a non-local interface via the listen_addresses  

# configuration parameter, or via the -i or -h command line switches.  

 

 

 

# TYPE  DATABASE        USER            ADDRESS                 METHOD  

 

# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only   

local   all             all                                     peer  

# IPv4 local connections:   

host    all             all             127.0.0.1/32            ident  

# IPv6 local connections:   

host    all             all             ::1/128                 ident  

# Allow replication connections from localhost, by a user with the  

# replication privilege.  

#local   replication     postgres                                peer  

#host    replication     postgres        127.0.0.1/32            ident  

#host    replication     postgres        ::1/128                 ident  

Change the METHOD to md5 as shown below:

# TYPE  DATABASE        USER            ADDRESS                 METHOD  

 # "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only   

local   all             all                                     md5  

# IPv4 local connections:   

host    all             all             127.0.0.1/32            md5  

# IPv6 local connections:   

host    all             all             ::1/128                 md5  

In order for the change to take effect, reload the pg_hba.conf file.

As with any command, there are several ways you can reload the pg_hba.conf file.

Method 1: From the shell using pg_ctl reload:

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]# su - postgres   

-bash-4.1$ pg_ctl reload   

server signaled   

-bash-4.1$  

Method 2: From psql using pg_reload_conf();    

-bash-4.1$ psql postgres postgres   

psql (9.1.1)   

Type "help" for help.   

  

postgres=# select pg_reload_conf();   

 pg_reload_conf   

----------------   

 t   

(1 row)   

  

postgres=#  

Method 3: From the shell using -c switch to run select pg_reload_conf(); -bash-4.1$ psql postgres postgres -c "select pg_reload_conf();"  

Password for user postgres:   

 pg_reload_conf   

----------------   

 t   

(1 row)   

  

-bash-4.1$  

7. Configure Remote Access for PostgreSQL 9
Locate the postgresql.conf file under /var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data.

Look for CONNECTIONS AND AUTHENTICATION. It will look as below:

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------  

# CONNECTIONS AND AUTHENTICATION  

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------  

 

# - Connection Settings -  

 

#listen_addresses = 'localhost'     # what IP address(es) to listen on;  

                    # comma-separated list of addresses;  

                    # defaults to 'localhost', '*' = all  

                    # (change requires restart)  

#port = 5432                # (change requires restart)  

By default, access is limited to local machine (localhost).

To enable remote connections, uncomment listen_addresses and change to '*' as shown below.

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------  

# CONNECTIONS AND AUTHENTICATION  

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------  

 

# - Connection Settings -   

  

listen_addresses = '*'      # what IP address(es) to listen on;  

                    # comma-separated list of addresses;  

                    # defaults to 'localhost', '*' = all  

                    # (change requires restart)  

#port = 5432                # (change requires restart)  

You can also set the listen_address limit to a specific IP (or IPs using a comma separated list).

Note: For security, it is also a good idea to change the default port. To do this, uncomment port and set to a new port value.

If you change the port, you will need to restart the service.

Restart the postgresql service: service postgresql-9.1 restart   

Stopping postgresql-9.1 service:                           [  OK  ]   

Starting postgresql-9.1 service:                           [  OK  ]   

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]#  

If you encounter startup errors, check under /var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data/pg_log for clues.

Verify the changes to listen_address and port (if changed):

-bash-4.1$ psql   

Password:   

psql (9.1.1)   

Type "help" for help.   

  

postgres=# show listen_addresses;   

 listen_addresses   

------------------   

 *   

(1 row)   

  

  

postgres=# show port;   

 port   

------   

 5432   

(1 row)   

  

postgres=#  

8. Create User and Database for PostgreSQL 9


To check Check functionality, connect to postgres db as user postgres.

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]# psql postgres postgres   

Password for user postgres:   

psql (9.1.1)   

Type "help" for help.   

  

postgres=#  

Create a user:
postgres=# create user myuser with password 'secret';   

CREATE ROLE  

Create a database and give ownership to the new user:
postgres=# create database mytestdb owner=myuser;   

CREATE DATABASE  

Connect to the database as user:
postgres=# \c mytestdb myuser   

Password for user myuser:   

You are now connected to database "mytestdb" as user "myuser".  

Create a table and insert row(s):

mytestdb=> create table testtable (col1 varchar);   

CREATE TABLE   

mytestdb=> insert into testtable values('hello');   

INSERT 0 1  

Select on the table you created:

mytestdb=> select * from testtable;   

 col1   

-------   

 hello   

(1 row)   

  

mytestdb=>  

Describe table:
mytestdb=> \dt    List of relations    Schema |   Name    | Type  | Owner --------+-----------+-------+--------   public | testtable | table | myuser   (1 row)  
Note that by default the schema used is Public. You should create a specific schema for your users.

9. Configure PostgreSQL 9 Service to Start at Boot
By default, the service postgresql-9.1 is added to chkconifg, but all run levels are set to off.

Add for run levels 2,3, and 4 for the postgresql-9.1 service.

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]# chkconfig --level 234 postgresql-9.1 on  
10. Create Symlinks for Backward Compatibility from PostgreSQL 9 to PostgreSQL 8
Many, if not most, third party software and modules are still be set to look for PoistgreSQL's conf file and data directory under their old (pre-version 9) locations.

You can address this, and make life easier for yourself, by creating a few symlinks from the new locations to the old.

Symlink 1: Symlink for the binary directory. This is particularly useful as this is the location of the pg_config file

root@server1 [~]# ln -s /usr/pgsql-9.1/bin/pg_config /usr/bin  
Symlink 2: Symlink for the old data directory location of /var/lob/pgsql

root@server1 [~]# ln -s /var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data /var/lib/pgsql     

root@server1 [~]# ln -s /var/lib/pgsql/9.1/backups /var/lib/pgsql    

11. Install PostGIS on PostgreSQL 9
Using the postgresql repo, we can easily install PostGIS if we wish to.

The installtion will also install Proj4 and Geos and required perl modules.

[root@server1 yum.repos.d]# yum install postgis91 postgis91-utils

Command to stop PostgreSQL 

Original: if [ -r /etc/rc.d/init.d/rhdb ]; then /etc/rc.d/init.d/rhdb stop; else /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql stop; fi  Change to: if [ -r /etc/rc.d/init.d/rhdb ]; then /etc/rc.d/init.d/rhdb stop; else /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql-9.1 stop; fi  4. Command to initialize PostgreSQL Original: if [ -r /etc/rc.d/init.d/rhdb ]; then /etc/rc.d/init.d/rhdb start; else /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql initdb ; /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql start; fi  Change to: if [ -r /etc/rc.d/init.d/rhdb ]; then /etc/rc.d/init.d/rhdb start; else /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql-9.1 initdb ; /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql-9.1 start; fi  5. Path to postmaster PID file Original:
/var/run/postmaster.pid  Change to:
/var/run/postmaster-9.1.pid  
6. Paths to host access config file Original:
