EPO PATSTAT installation bash scripts for Postgresql
These scripts help to insert data into PATSTAT DB from zip files found in PATSTAT CDs.

The database PATSTAT should be created in postgresql to create the PATSTAT DB you should become a postgres user then in the postgres shell enter the following commands;
postgres=# CREATE USER your_user_name WITH PASSWORD 'your_password';
postgres=# CREATE DATABASE patstat;
postgres=# GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE patstat to your_user_name;
Then run insert_data_patstat.sh, after few hours to control the number of rows in the patstat database run count_rows_in_patstat.sh
