Installation
The installation process depends on the distribution type and your Operational System.
The installer distribution is the recommended way to install DBeaver in Windows and MacOS X. It contains all required dependencies. In addition, the installer automatically upgrades DBeaver to the new version if a previous version has already been installed. To install DBeaver, run the installer executable and follow the instructions on its screens.
NOTE:
- The installer does not change any system settings or the Java installation.
- The included JDK will be accessible only to DBeaver.
When installing DBeaver manually, without using an installer:
-
Extract the contents of the archive.
NOTE: Do not unzip the archive over a previous DBeaver version. If you already have any version of DBeaver extracted in the same location - remove it before unzipping the new version.
NOTE: All configurations, scripts and other necessary data are stored in a separate location (usually in the user`s home directory) so the program deinstallation does not affect them. -
Run the dbeaver executable.
To install DBeaver using a Debian package:
- Run
sudo dpkg -i dbeaver-<version>.deb
. - Execute
dbeaver &
.
To install DBeaver using RPM package:
- Run
sudo rpm -ivh dbeaver-<version>.rpm
. - Execute
dbeaver &
.
NOTE: To upgrade DBeaver to the next version, use sudo rpm -Uvh dbeaver-<version>.rpm
parameter.
This feature is available only in Windows and macOS.
From time to time, DBeaver automatically checks for new versions. If the check is not disabled and a new version is available, it will prompt you to decide whether you want to stay or upgrade. If the second option is chosen, the installer will be downloaded and launched upon completion. Note that DBeaver itself will be gracefully closed to avoid data loss.
