Theres kind of an assumption here that this *must* be a single user scenario. You wouldn't want to be swapping databases with 3 users logged in! Putting the web/struts layer to one side and thinking just about a single user accessing the database through the secured API it might make sense to ima

Sorry don't really know too much about DHIS1.4 authentication. How does it work? Is it that no authentication is required to run the application and the users require username and password to open different mdb files? 2010/1/28 Lars Helge Øverland > > > 2010/1/28 Bob Jolliffe > > Hi Lars >> >

The deb package as it is currently is set up with dependencies on java and tomcat (so they will be triggered to install if necessary). By default it will just run out of the box using an h2 database in /opt/dhis2/database. I held off on the postgres dependency because I know there are also mysql
