Thank you both Bob and Jason, so much! I will give the suggestions a shot. That last link looks really promising Bob, but it seems to be very much a work in progress:
“Once your base system is properly installed and secured you can proceed to install the dhis2-tools package from the apt repository at http://apt.dhis2.org. The easiest way to do so is to run the install.sh script available at …”
https://www.dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/implementer/html/ch20s03.html
Does anyone on the list have a link to this install.sh file? If not, I can manage, this isn’t my first apt-get repository rodeo :). Thanks a million both of you, getting to work on this now, and will report back.

I suspect Jason is right.
People often backup the database with the ownership information intact, which is useful if you want to restore the database on the same system, eg recovering after a crash of some sort, where you want to get everything back to where it was.
Having the ownership in the backup is more problematic where the intention is to restore it somewhere else where the users may be different (and might not even exist)
| suggest you do the backup again, but this time ensure that you don’t include the ownership information. If using pg_dump the -O option ensures this. Then when you restore into a new database, all objects will be owned by the (new) database owner. I’m pretty sure there will be a similar option on pgadmin if you are using this.
Mind you, if the dump is in the postgres custom binary format , then you can use the -O option on restore and it will ignore ownership information. If it is a text based sql format then that option doesn’t work. You can massage the file (you can see an example using sed at the bottom of the script here https://github.com/dhis2/dhis2tools/blob/master/pkg/usr/bin/dhis2-restoredb))), but maybe its easier to just do the backup again as described at the start. Particularly if you are not using the command line tools.
The final alternative is to do a REASSIGN OWNED BY xxx TO nnn. This might also be straightforward if you can easily see who it is that is owning the database objects.
On a more general note, as an alternative to working through chapter 8 (which is useful for understanding some of the concepts) you might consider basing your installation on the dhis2-tools : https://www.dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/implementer/html/ch20.html. Addressing this postgres permissions issue is one of the many gotchas which are dealt with by using these standard scripts.

Bob

Hi TIm,
Usually, this happens when a local database is restored from a remote dump which belongs to another user not present in your local system. Be sure your database is owned by the user which is present in your hibernate.properties files, and that all tables belong to that user. Otherwise, you may need to alter the ownership of the database and tables to the user which is used to access the database.
Best regards,
Jason

Hello DHIS2 Developer’s List
I’m attempting to spin up a couple test instances of DHIS2 inside Ubuntu 14.04 and with both 2.14 and 2.16 and am encountering some problems.
If create the postgres user (dhis) and the db (dhis2) and do nothing else, I get the demo version (admin:district) for both 2.14 and 2.16. So tomcat and postgresql are talking and the server is capable of starting and serving pages. I then delete the DB, recreate a blank one and import a database dump from our production server (version 2.14). Things go well until I execute ./tomcat-dhis/bin/startup.sh this time, the system will fail to start either 2.14 or 2.16. Interestingly enough, I can do the exact same process in Windows 7 (Postgres and Tomcat again) and 2.14 starts up without issue, but I have not tested 2.16 in Windows yet. I’m encountering the following error after startup routine 11 of 11 is complete. I’ve included a snippet below from 2.14, and have attached the entire log to this email.
System: Ubuntu 14.04
PostgreSQL 9.3.5

Any ideas or suggestions are appreciated. I’m both trying to learn how to use Ubuntu with DHIS2 (used the following: https://www.dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/implementer/html/ch08s02.html) and attempting to test our migration from 2.14 to 2.16. Thanks!

I guess the problem at the time I was writing that we didn’t really have a stable place where this file would be. Since then we moved to github as Knut indicated, so I should just put the link in the documentation.
