dhis.conf should look like this hibernate.dialect = org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect hibernate.connection.driver_class = org.postgresql.Driver hibernate.connection.url = jdbc:postgresql:dhis2 hibernate.connection.username = dhis hibernate.connection.password = dhis hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto = update

Start up Put a shortcut to dhis2-live.exe on your dashboard and click on it DHIS2 will start and open your browser to http://localhost:8082 with and empty database If this does not work, try http://127.0.0.1:8082
