+#Notes
+
+ProgresSQL Server is an full database service solution. So interaction, like databases, users and backups.
+These are all handled outside the scope of the LifeLog application. You will need to set this up,
+prior of using this application. And make an setting in main.cnf that this is handled outside.
+Mainly what driver you are using. In this case it is the ProgresSQL one. Modify the Anon property to say:
+<DBI_DRV_PRFIX<DBI:Pg:host=localhost;dbname=>
+Don't specify the dbname. You don't need to run a schema, as on a new blank database, all will be created.
+The alias is assumed the database name, and the user.
+
+Hope all works for you, and happy logging!
