 Dear friends,

In this post, I will show how to install PosgreSQL 12 on Fedora 33. To do this, we need the following.

1. Open a terminal and login with sudo user.

2. Install the postgres repository (pgdg-fedora-repo ) with the command

dnf install -y https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/F-33-x86_64/pgdg-fedora-repo-latest.noarch.rpm

 

3. Install the postgreSQL server, with the following command.

dnf install -y postgresql13-server

4. Then, we need to initialize the database and enable automatic-start, with the following commands.

/usr/pgsql-13/bin/postgresql-13-setup initdb

systemctl enable postgresql-13

systemctl start postgresql-13

5. Set the password. To do this, we need to log in with postgres user and execute the following command:

 psql -c "alter user postgres with password '<your_password>'"

 

6. Finally, login to database using the postgres user with the password created recently. You can use PGAdmin o Dbeaver
