Installing jaws php cms on ubuntu and firebird backend

Installing jaws-cms on ubuntu and firebird backend

$ cd /var/www
$ wget http://bits.jaws-project.com/releases/jaws-0.8.6/jaws-complete-0.8.6.tar.gz
$ tar -zxvf jaws-complete-0.8.6.tar.gz
$ mv html jaws

sudo chmod -R g+rw jaws
sudo chown -R www-data.www-data jaws

create an new database with flamerobin /var/lib/firebird/2.1/data/jaws.fdb

crate a symlink , seems that if you put only jaws.fdb in the database field
then it needs to be located in jaws/data

$ cd /var/www/jaws/data
$ ln -s /var/lib/firebird/2.1/data/jaws.fdb

start the installer http://localhost/jaws/install/
fill in the username for database and password
at database put jaws.fdb

Some screen shots o took during install and configuration
