Task

Consult your DBA for a custom installation using an existing tablespace or user for the Brand Mobiliser schema.

  1. Edit the BRAND_HOME/sql/oracle/1.3.1/02-BrandMobiliser-Users.sql script, and replace XXX with a password for the mwiz2 user:
    create user mwiz2 identified by XXX;
  2. As a user with DBA privileges, log in to the database.
  3. Create a tablespace:
    /sql/oracle/1.3.1/01-BrandMobiliser-Tablespaces.sql
  4. Create the mwiz2 user:
    /sql/oracle/1.3.1/02-BrandMobiliser-Users.sql
  5. As the mwiz2 user, create a schema:
    /sql/oracle/1.3.1/03a-BrandMobiliser-Objects.sql

    Perform all remaining steps as the mwiz2 user.

  6. Create another schema:
    oracle/1.3.1/03b-BrandMobiliser-Objects.sql
  7. Insert initial data and create the admin user:
    /sql/common/1.3.1/04-BrandMobiliser-Base-Data.sql
