PostgreSQL is a cross-platform object-relational database management system and its primary function is to store data and retrieve it later. It is open source and it is designed for high volume environments.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #2b2b2b;\">Current stable release of PostgreSQL is 9.3 and it is community supported until 2018-09-09.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #2b2b2b;\">The installation of PostgreSQL is very simple and requires only few minutes to be completed. Let&#8217;s start.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #2b2b2b;\"><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>First thing you need to do is to exclude the\u00a0PostgreSQL in your <span style=\"color: #000000;\">\/etc\/yum.repos.d\/CentOS-Base.repo<\/span>. You need to add the following line<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">exclude=postgresql*<\/pre>\n<p>in the [base] and [updates] sections and save the changes.<\/p>\n<p>Next, you need to install the PGDG RPM file by using the commands:<\/p>\n<p>For 32bit CentOS systems:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## yum localinstall http:\/\/yum.postgresql.org\/9.3\/redhat\/rhel-6-i386\/pgdg-centos93-9.3-1.noarch.rpm<\/pre>\n<p>For 64bit CentOS systems:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## yum localinstall http:\/\/yum.postgresql.org\/9.3\/redhat\/rhel-6-x86_64\/pgdg-centos93-9.3-1.noarch.rpm<\/pre>\n<p>If you like to list the available packages you can use the command:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## yum list postgres*<\/pre>\n<p>To install a basic PostgreSQL 9.3 server use the following command:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## yum install postgresql93-server<\/pre>\n<p>Once the postgresql93-server package is installed, you need to initialize a database:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## service postgresql-9.3 initdb<\/pre>\n<p>If you like to\u00a0enable PostgreSQL on system startup you can type:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## chkconfig postgresql-9.3 on<\/pre>\n<p>And finally, use the following command to start the database service:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## service postgresql-9.3 start<\/pre>\n<p>Once the installation is completed, you can start using the<strong> PostgreSQL 9.3<\/strong> on your <a title=\"CentOS VPS Hosting\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/managed-vps-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CentOS 6 VPS<\/a> by typing the commands:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## su - postgres\r\n## psql<\/pre>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t know what to do next, you can always use the help command which will tell you exactly how to use the PostgreSQL command line interface.<\/p>\n<p>The easiest way to start using PostgreSQL is to create a schema in the database called postgres, which is default.<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## CREATE SCHEMA newschema;<\/pre>\n<p>Next, create new user and set a password for that user<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## CREATE USER newuser PASSWORD 'yourpassword';<\/pre>\n<p>Grant privileges with<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## GRANT ALL ON SCHEMA newschema TO newuser;\r\n## GRANT ALL ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA newschema TO newuser;<\/pre>\n<p>And finally exit PostgreSQL using the command<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## \\q<\/pre>\n<p>Now, you can\u00a0log in using the\u00a0newuser with<\/p>\n<pre class=\"brush: bash; gutter: false\">## su - newuser<\/pre>\n<p>Please note, the default authentication mode is set to &#8216;ident&#8217;, so if you like to log in as newuser, you should register the newuser as a Linux system user on your <a title=\"CentOS VPS Hosting\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/managed-vps-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CentOS 6 VPS<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Of course you don\u2019t have to do any of this if you use one of our <a title=\"Linux VPS Hosting\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/managed-vps-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Linux VPS hosting services<\/a>, in which case you can simply ask our expert Linux admins to do this for you.
