Jena SDB requires an SQL database to operate. By default, VIVO relies on MySQL - or the open source fork MariaDB, which is provided by most Linux distributions in place of MySQL.

Once installed, you only need to create a user and schema - see Installing VIVO. VIVO will create the necessary tables and load the default data on startup.

Alternative databases: Jena SDB supports other databases - including PostgreSQL and Oracle. If you wish to use a different database, you will need to add the appropriate Java libraries to the application, and configure the VitroConnection.DataSource.* settings in runtime.properties so that Jena knows what database it is operating with.

Tomcat Tomcat

Tomcat 8.5 or later

...

Tomcat User: When running, Tomcat is usually launched under an unprivileged user account. As VIVO needs to be able to read and write to the home directory, you must ensure that permissions are set on the home directory correctly. This is most easily achieved by assigning ownership to the user that Tomcat is running as.

Optional - MySQL / MariaDB 5.5 or later (or any other supported by Jena SDB)

VIVO can optionally be configured to use a legacy database called Jena SDB, which requires an SQL database to operate. This may be an attractive option for system administrators familiar with SQL databases, however note that Jena SDB was 'retired' by the Apache Jena project in 2020. 

Once MySQL is installed, you only need to create a user and schema - see Jena SDB and MySQL setup. VIVO will create the necessary tables and load the default data on startup.

If you wish to use a different database, you will need to add the appropriate Java libraries to the application, and configure the VitroConnection.DataSource.* settings in runtime.properties so that Jena knows what database it is operating with.
