Description
Geneweb is a genealogy software program with a Web interface. It can be used off-line or in a Web environment. It uses very efficient techniques of relationship and consanguinity computing, developed in collaboration with Didier Rémy, research Director at INRIA.
GeneWeb's strong points are the following:
- Web interface
- Dynamic display
- Relationship and consanguinity computing
- Polyglot
- Spelling correction
- Nobility titles
- Information update and protection
- Customization (background color, etc)
- Miscellaneous Features: birthdays, last births, etc.
- An example: more than 100,000 persons
- Import and export of GEDCOM files
Installation
- The following steps install two packages, namely:
geneweb-6.08-*.el6.sme.i386.rpm smeserver-geneweb-2.0-*.el6.sme.noarch.rpm
- The first RPM- geneweb-6.08-*.el6.sme.i386.rpm is the latest Geneweb build (6.08) compiled for SME 9.
- The second - smeserver-geneweb-2.0-*.el4.sme.noarch.rpm integrates Geneweb into SME 9. It includes a server-manager panel to configure the IP assigned to the client machine from which Geneweb is allowed to be administered.
The following command will install all of the required packages for you.
yum --enablerepo=smecontribs install geneweb smeserver-geneweb
Uninstall
rpm -e smeserver-geneweb geneweb
