==='''5. Delete the index.html'''===
rm /home/e-smith/files/ibays/bookkeeping/html/index.html
==='''Get PhreeBooks'''===
cd /home/e-smith/files/ibays/bookkeeping/files/
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/phreebooks/files/latest/download?source=directory
that will download latest version from PhreeBook site, now unzip it using:
unzip <filename>
for today that would be:
unzip PhreeBooksR36RC2.zip
there should be 2 entries similar to this:
PhreeBooksR36RC2
PhreeBooksR36RC2.zip
One it´s the originally downloaded file (version can be newer) and other the directory with unzipped content.
==='''6. Put files on right directory and right permissions'''===
mv phreebooks/* ../html/
chown -R www:www /home/e-smith/files/ibays/bookkeeping
chmod -R 0750 /home/e-smith/files/ibays/bookkeeping
==='''7.. Install and configure PhreeBooks using browser'''===
Open a browser and type:
http'''s'''://<server ip address>/bookkeeping
{{Note box| Please be patient, this can take 30 seconds or so (depending on processor speed etc )}}
Now follow the on-screen instructions.
==='''8. Post-install adjustments'''===
After install, the web server needs RO access to all directories except /my_files which needs write access also for writing company specific files. <br>
After install, the web server needs access to all directories for reading only, except /my_files which needs write access also for writing company specific files. Once you have the normal PhreeBooks desktop view (with dropdown menus across the top of the screen) then rename or delete the Install directory and make Includes/configure.php read only.

mv /home/e-smith/files/ibays/bookkeeping/html/install /home/e-smith/files/ibays/bookkeeping/html/install.old
or
rm -rf /home/e-smith/files/ibays/bookkeeping/html/install
And configure rigth file permissions:
chmod -R 0551 /home/e-smith/files/ibays/bookkeeping
chmod -R 0750 /home/e-smith/files/ibays/bookkeeping/html/my_files
chmod 0400 /home/e-smith/files/ibays/bookkeeping/html/includes/configure.php
{{Note box| I am investigating whether the 0551 file-permission above can be lowered to 0550 IF the user can pre-establish membership of a 'Group', i.e. by password protecting the ibay.}}
I hope it works now. :)
