Postgresql configuration

By default, Kanboard use Sqlite to store its data but it's also possible to use Postgresql.

Requirements

• A Postgresql server already installed and configured
• The PHP extension pdo_pgsql installed (Debian/Ubuntu: apt-get install php5-pgsql)

Note: Kanboard is tested with Postgresql 9.3 and 9.4

Configuration

Create an empty database with the command pgsql:

CREATE DATABASE kanboard;

Create a config file

The file config.php should contains those values:

<?php

// We choose to use Postgresql instead of Sqlite
define('DB_DRIVER', 'postgres');

// Mysql parameters
define('DB_USERNAME', 'REPLACE_ME');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'REPLACE_ME');
define('DB_HOSTNAME', 'REPLACE_ME');
define('DB_NAME', 'kanboard');

Note: You can also rename the template file config.default.php to config.php.
