# Install and Configure PostgreSQL

To install PostgreSQL, go to http://www.postgresql.org/download/ and follow the instructions to download and install the software in the appropriate format for your system.

After you have installed PostgreSQL, you must carry out the following configuration changes.

- Create a PostgreSQL user for IDOL Site Admin to use when it connects to the database. For more information on how to create a new PostgreSQL user account, refer to the PostgreSQL `createuser` documentation.

  Note: You must also create an associated database for that user.

- In the `pg_hba.conf` file, configure PostgreSQL to accept connections from the IDOL Site Admin host. For more information about client authentication, refer to the PostgreSQL `pg_hba.conf` file documentation.
