[opencms-dev] Postgres set fails: Database "postgres" does not exist

Hi all,

While setting up OpenCMS v6 alpha 3, I try to use a Postgresql database 
as a backend.

Keeping the default database URL of jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/ 
gives the following error:

  Error connecting to database using: jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/
-------------------------------------------
org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: Backend start-up failed: FATAL: 
Database "postgres" does not exist in the system catalog.

To work around the error, the URL can be changed like so:

jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/template1

Is it possible for the connection string default to be changed?

Regards,
Graham
