Note: TACTIC requires database access, and for ease of installation, we reccomend using the PostgreSQL configuration file provided in the source code. After installation, you can further configure and secure your database.
Replace the file,
/var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf
with,
/opt/tactic/tactic/src/install/postgresql/pg_hba.conf
Restart postgresql,
systemctl restart postgresql
Run TACTIC Bootstrap
python3 /opt/tactic/tactic/src/pyasm/search/upgrade/postgresql/bootstrap_load.py
