dhis 2.29: postgresql only

Support - Assistance technique
1

Hi,

in dhis version 2.29 we require PostgreSQL as the database platform, together with the PostGIS spatial extension. This means that MySQL is no longer supported.

The minimum version required is PostgreSQL 9.1. However we recommend upgrading to a later version as we plan to take advantage of some of the useful features part of PostgreSQL 10 such as logical replication and native partitioning in future versions of DHIS 2.

A correction to my own statement here - DHIS version 2.29 requires PostgreSQL 9.4 (not 9.1 as previously stated).

You can find a section in the install docs here which clarifies it:

Apologies for the confusion.
