On the database serveur:

• You may want to create a specific user: From postgres as administrator: CREATE ROLE 'rolename' WITH LOGIN PASSWORD 'rolepassword'; From command line: createuser 'rolename' --password
• Create a database owned by this role: From postgres as administrator: CREATE DATABASE 'basename' OWNER TO 'rolename'; From command line: createdb basename -O rolename
• restore the based schema with sql/postgres.dump AS rolename psql -u rolename basename < sql/postgres.dump

(Refer to postgresql documentation for more options)

Copy the vote.yml.example to /etc/vote.yml then edit it: - change the db settings (and probably the smtp one)

• configure apache to use either the cgi or fast_cgi program or run it as a standalone server.

Enjoy !
