# Create the GitLab production database
mysql> CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `gitlabhq_production` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET `utf8` COLLATE `utf8_unicode_ci`;
# Create the MySQL User change $password to a real password
mysql> CREATE USER 'gitlab'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '$password';
# Grant proper permissions to the MySQL User
mysql> GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, INDEX, ALTER ON `gitlabhq_production`.* TO 'gitlab'@'localhost';
## PostgreSQL
sudo apt-get install -y postgresql-9.1 postgresql-server-dev-9.1
# Connect to database server
sudo -u postgres psql -d template1
# Add a user called gitlab. Change $password to a real password
template1=# CREATE USER gitlab WITH PASSWORD '$password';
# Create the GitLab production database & grant all privileges on database
template1=# CREATE DATABASE gitlabhq_production OWNER gitlab;
# Quit from PostgreSQL server
template1=# \q
# Try connect to new database
sudo -u gitlab psql -d gitlabhq_production
