Linux and installation.

I have a Ubuntu installation of Linux and I am not sure how to go about the installation process for any of the databases. In the first chapter I type ‘psql’ and I am met with an error that role “kevin” does not exist, so I cannot proceed. Also the additional utilities need to be installed. This is the first chapter. Then in chapter 7 I have no idea how to install neo4j. I have a Ubuntu Server so there is no GUI and no browser to browse to the file even if it was specified. It indicates that Enterprise edition was used but on Neo4J’s website it looks like only Community edition is available to download.

Hi Ronald,

I can’t help you with the other databases, but you can follow this http://forums.pragprog.com/forums/202/topics/10089 for installing PostGres (I wish I’d seen that before I installed mine – took me half a day!)
