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
  Tip:
Details (in english) of the above features can be found at http://cristal.inria.fr/~ddr/GeneWeb/en/index.html

Install with the following command and it will install all of the required packages for you.

  • Two packages are installed

smeserver-geneweb-2.0-1.el4.sme.noarch.rpm
  • The first RPM- geneweb-5.00-*.el4.sme.i386.rpm is the latest Geneweb build (5.00) compiled for SME 7.
  • The second - smeserver-geneweb-2.0-1.el4.sme.noarch.rpm integrates Geneweb into SME 7. It includes a server-manager panel to configure the IP assigned to the client machine from which Geneweb is allowed to be administered.

This article or section needs to be expanded. Please help to fill the gaps or discuss the issue on the talk page


Developers invited to view the source of the smeserver-geneweb package. One major validation I desire currently does not work (IP_number) along with the 'must_be_local' validation already included.
