The schema installation has 4 main steps, regardless of platform:

...

Platform

Create the database user

Oracle:

This command will prompt for the name of the user to be created.

Code Block
sqlplus SYS/SYSPassword@SID as SYSDBA @schema/oracle/install/create_user


Sql Server:

This command requires the user, the password, the login and the database to be provided as parameters.

Code Block
sqlcmd -S localhost\myservice -i schema/sql_server/install/create_database_and_user.sql -v dbName="phixflow" dbLogin="phixflow" dbUser="phixflow" dbPassword="mypass"


MySQL:

Start a session the database:

Code Block
mysql --user=myrootuser --password

Create the user, supplying the name of the database, the user and the password in the commands below:

Code Block
create database phixflow
    CHARACTER SET = 'utf8'
    COLLATE = 'utf8_bin';
grant all privileges on phixflow.* to 'myuser'@'%' identified by 'mypass';
exit

For Oracle 12c and above, you should use a '/' instead of ':' before [SID], so that [SID] is treated as a SERVICE name rather than an SID. This is due to Oracle 12c introducing pluggable databases (PDB's).

There is also the option to add the line 'USE_SID_AS_SERVICE_listener=on' to the tnsnames.ora Oracle configuration file in order to treat SID's as service names by default. This is provided by Oracle as a workaround for users who have hard-coded connection strings that are difficult to change by hand, and so should not be necessary for phixflow configuration.
