Hello, new user, or more accurately, aspiring user. Am I correct in my reading that as of April, 2025, to use Specify 7 one must start by installing Specify 6, because the Setup Wizard that creates the database is meant to work for 6?
Good morning @VHough,
Yes, you are correct, as of April 2025, Specify 6 would still be required to setup a self-hosted Specify 7 instance due to the creation of the database. There is progress to decouple this requirement that began in 7.10 and will continue into 7.11 (see Automatic DB user creation for new Specify 7 instances by acwhite211 · Pull Request #6389 · specify/specify7 · GitHub).
