Post-installation modifications may be required, particularly the database connection properties for installations that used the Standard PostgreSQL Server or an existing database.
Also, instructions are provided below for increasing the amount of memory allocated to Servoy, which can enhance overall performance.
Users can access the servoy.properties file found in the ../application_server/ folder (found in the root installation folder) to modify database connection settings.
Servoy also provides additional database connection configuration via the Resources Project while working on a solution. For details see [Working With Database Servers.|Working With Database Servers]
The Servoy Repository, a set of tables in the database underlying the nameserver connection 'repository_server' is required to run Servoy. The repository is installed if you choose the bundled PostgreSQL option, but it will need to be manually installed if you choose the full-featured PostgreSQL installation or if you choose to connect to an existing database.
This is achieved via the command line process that can also used to upgrade the repository:
Macintosh/Linux/Unix:
./servoy_server.sh -upgradeRepository
Windows
servoy_server.bat -upgradeRepository
Executing the above command starts the Servoy Application Server and will create or upgrade the table structure required for the Servoy Repository to the version that the Servoy Application Server requires.
