Install the PostgreSQL Database Application

The PostgreSQL database application can be installed on the same server as the application or a different server. If it is installed on a different server, the location of the database server must be provided while installing the application.

Follow the steps to install the PostgreSQL database application.

CAUTION: The PostgreSQL database application must be installed before the application.

NOTE: These steps assume you have launched the installer through the Netwrix Setup Launcher (Netwrix_Setup.exe). If you are not using the launcher, right-click on NetwrixPostgreSQL14.exe and select Run as administrator. Then skip to Step 2.

Step 1 – Click PostgreSQL Setup. The Netwrix PostgreSQL Setup wizard opens.

Step 2 – Click Install.

Step 3 – Read the End User License Agreement and select the I accept the license agreement checkbox. Click Next.

Step 4 – By default, the installation directories are set to:

• Install Folder – C:\Program Files\Stealthbits\PostgresSQL14
• Data Folder – C:\ProgramData\Stealthbits\PostgresSQL14

Optionally, enter a new path or use the Browse buttons to modify as desired. Click Next.

Step 5 – The installation begins and the installer displays a Setup Progress window. Click Exit when the installation is successful. The Netwrix PostgreSQL Setup wizard closes.

The PostgreSQL database application is now installed. Nest you can install the Netwrix Threat Manager Reporting Module application. See the Install the Netwrix Threat Manager Reporting Module topic for additional information.
