webmaster@1: CREATE THE PostgreSQL DATABASE
webmaster@1: ------------------------------
webmaster@1: 
webmaster@1: Note that the database must be created with UTF-8 (Unicode) encoding.
webmaster@1: 
webmaster@1: 1. CREATE DATABASE USER
webmaster@1: 
webmaster@1:    This step is only necessary if you don't already have a user set up (e.g.
webmaster@1:    by your host) or you want to create new user for use with Drupal only. The
webmaster@1:    following command creates a new user named "username" and asks for a
webmaster@1:    password for that user:
webmaster@1: 
webmaster@1:      createuser --pwprompt --encrypted --no-adduser --no-createdb username
webmaster@1: 
webmaster@1:    If everything works correctly, you'll see a "CREATE USER" notice.
webmaster@1: 
webmaster@1: 2. CREATE THE DRUPAL DATABASE
webmaster@1: 
webmaster@1:    This step is only necessary if you don't already have a database set up (e.g.
webmaster@1:    by your host) or you want to create new database for use with Drupal only.
webmaster@1:    The following command creates a new database named "databasename", which is
webmaster@1:    owned by previously created "username":
webmaster@1: 
webmaster@1:      createdb --encoding=UNICODE --owner=username databasename
webmaster@1: 
webmaster@1:    If everything works correctly, you'll see a "CREATE DATABASE" notice.
