Installing : Installing Focal Point : Setting up the database : Setting up a PostgreSQL database
  
Setting up a PostgreSQL database
1 Install PostgreSQL by following the manufacturer’s instructions.
2 Set the database character set to UTF‑encoding.
This ensures that the database can handle Unicode content.
3 Login to PostGreSQL by using a role which has superuser privileges.
4 Start the database server, and then create a database called focalpoint.
Focal Point uses the default PostgreSQL table space.
Next, see Setting up the application server.
