Setting up the databases required by Pentaho 

Pentaho requires 3 databases which are more or less mandatory. These are:

Please note that the sql files above REQUIRES you to edit them since the database are created and are owned by the tomcat user. So, if you dont have another user in PostgreSQL who you want to use then you will have to replace every occurrence of tomcat with your own user before importing the files.

One point I would like to add is how I have created this SQL files: first I converted them from HSQLDB to MySQL and then from MySQL to PostgreSQL. It was a bit painfull process, but now Pentaho works and that's good. Please be warned that the sampledata is not 100% well converted so you may encounter some problem with it. This is a task that still needs to be done to finalize the sampledata.

loading the data into postgresql:

Create the above empty databases. Assuming your user is tomcat you would do that as following:

postgres@anfatech:~$ createdb shark -O tomcat
postgres@anfatech:~$ createdb quartz -O tomcat
postgres@anfatech:~$ createdb hibernate -O tomcat
postgres@anfatech:~$ createdb sampledata -O tomcat

 and import the scripts above into the appropriate database as following

tomcat@anfatech:~$ psql -U tomcat -d hibernate < hibernate.sql
tomcat@anfatech:~$ psql -U tomcat -d quartz < quarz.sql
tomcat@anfatech:~$ psql -U tomcat -d shark < shark.sql
tomcat@anfatech:~$ psql -U tomcat -d hibernate < sampledata.sql

Now your PostgreSQL should be ready. The next step is to configure the datasources required to access the data.

You can these are my samples for jboss

 sorry for the dead link (my homepage habe been token over) now i uploaded to templates to the wiki so they should be there fine!

I will add tomcat context.xml in the near future (???)

if you plan to deploy on tomcat then you better use what tomcat offers you:

instead of messing with config files in conf/server.xml  or even worst creating a file under $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/yourApplication.xml

you could use what tomcat expects in your Application archive

 pentaho
|-- META-INF
|   `-- context.xml  <---(***1***)
`-- WEB-INF
    `-- web.xml

(**1**): this file "context.xml" will be processed by tomcat at deployment time and if you define your datasources there, tomcat
will do the necessary configurations for you. an example of context.xml file will be looking like the following one:

<Context     path="/pentaho"
               docBase="path/to/pentaho" <---(***2***)
               debug="5"
               reloadable="true"
               crossContext="true">   
    <Resource   name="jdbc/Quartz"
                auth="Container"
                type="javax.sql.DataSource"
                maxActive="100"
                maxIdle="30"
                maxWait="10000"
                username="username"
                password="password"  
                driverClassName="org.postgresql.Driver"
                url="jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/target-database"/>   
<!--
    You can add as many datasources as you need here

-->
</Context>

(**2**) : the docBase in tomcat is mostly something like this

      docBase="${catalina.home}/webapps/pentaho

when you finnished creating your context.xml you can then package your war and deploy it to tomcat which will convert the context.xml of your application

assuming pentaho.war to:

 $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/pentaho.xml

if your database are correctly set and everything went fine pentaho should be able to access the databases using the datasource defined in the context.xmlMake sure your driver is in the right location and startup your application server where Pentaho is deployed into

Configuring the Quartz Scheduler:

go to the file solution/system/quartz/quartz.properties and change the line and search for the property "
org.quartz.jobStore.driverDelegateClass".  Change that line so that it reads:

org.quartz.jobStore.driverDelegateClass = org.quartz.impl.jdbcjobstore.PostgreSQLDelegate
