20============================================================
21
22This directory contains scripts to initialise the PyKota
23storage database. Use the one which best suits your need
24depending on the storage backend you want to use.
25
26There's one subdirectory per backend type supported.
27
28Files :
29=======
30
31  * postgresql/pykota-postgresql.sql :
32 
33    This file creates an empty Quota Storage Database, using PostgreSQL
34    as a backend. You have to use it the first time you install PyKota
35    if you want to use PostgreSQL as the Quota Storage Backend.
36   
37  * ldap/pykota.schema : 
38 
39    This file adds the necessary classes and attributes to an existing
40    LDAP directory for use with PyKota. Read this file and the
41    associated ldap/README.ldap files for details.
42   
43   
44Old files, kept to allow people to upgrade from very old versions of PyKota :   
45=============================================================================
46   
47  * upgrade-to-1.19.sql : 
48 
49    This file upgrades the PostgreSQL Quota Storage Database schema
50    from versions before 1.19alpha7 to version 1.19alpha7 and above.
51    NEVER USE IT IF YOU ALREADY RUN 1.19alpha7 OR ABOVE !
52   
53  * upgrade-to-1.16.sql : 
54 
55    This file upgrades the PostgreSQL Quota Storage Database schema
56    from versions before 1.16 to version 1.16.
57    NEVER USE IT IF YOU ALREADY RUN 1.16 OR ABOVE !
58   
59  * upgrade-to-1.14.sql : 
60 
61    This file upgrades the PostgreSQL Quota Storage Database schema
62    from versions before 1.14 to version 1.14.
63    NEVER USE IT IF YOU ALREADY RUN 1.14 OR ABOVE !
64   
65  * VERYOLDpykota-upgrade-postgresql.sql :
66 
67    This file upgrades the PostgreSQL Quota Storage Database schema
68    from versions before 1.01 to version 1.01.
69   
70    IT'S THERE FOR HISTORICAL REASONS ONLY : DON'T USE IT, USE
71    THE SCRIPT DESCRIBED BELOW INSTEAD !
72   
73  * upgrade-from-before-1.03.py :
74 
75    This shell script upgrades the PostgreSQL Quota Storage Database schema
76    from versions 1.01 or 1.02 to version 1.03.
77    PLEASE DO A BACKUP OF YOUR PYKOTA DATABASE BEFORE RUNNING THIS SCRIPT !
78    Also this script will try to connect to PostgreSQL as the postgres user
79    (i.e. PostgreSQL's administrator), on the local machine (PyKota Storage
80    Server), without prompting for a password. Please read this script and
81    adapt it to your own configuration before running it. THIS IS IMPORTANT.
82   
83    THIS SCRIPT MAKES ANY REASONABLE CHECK TO ENSURE THAT YOUR DATAS WON'T
84    BE LOST, AND ALSO DUMPS YOUR OLD DATABASE TO A TEXT FILE BEFORE DOING
85    ANYTHING. IT WAS TESTED SEVERAL TIMES AND SHOULDN'T PRODUCE ANY ERROR
86    EXCEPT ABOUT THE pykotaadmin and pykotauser POSTGRESQL USERS WHO
87    ALREADY EXIST WHEN THE DATABASE SCHEMA IS UPGRADED. THIS IS NORMAL !
