ibWebAdmin Demo Server

This demo is currently offline but progress has been made on getting it running again!
Try PHPInfo to see the current set-up. ( Use 'back' to return here ) while the last stable version of ibWebAdmin was running on PHP5.2.6
The current server hardware is Server Software but the development work currently targets PHP8.4.5 and Firebird 5 on which I have a copy of ibWebAdmin substantially functional. The main problem is tidying the loose ends such as the differences in system tables in Firebird 5 which I need to get my head around.

In order to access a demo database use the User Name 'DEMO' and the password 'demo'.
Some areas of the demo will fail as the DEMO user does not have permission to carry out those actions, but how it works should be demonstrated. The on-line documentation is available here.

Having been having fun with managing the code base for ibWebAdmin. The original code was managed via sourceforge at ibWebAdmin, but this was moved to github partially due to the problems at the time over how sorceforge was being manged, at which point the name was changed to more reflect the bias towards firebird. What I had forgotten is that *I* had a fork of the code base which would have saved me a lot of time playing with getting the code working on PHP8.4 and Firebird 5. While I still find the structure of the html code difficult to navigate, it does work well enough and it some ways mirrors what Flamerobin does to provide similar functionality. I currently have two version of the code running on the development machine, but the firebirdWebAdmin should have been my starting point, so the next step in this is to sync my own fork to the local version and bring in anything from Mariuz's base at the same time. I've now started a bug sheet for my own copy of that which should probably be recorded on github's 'social media', but I do not find that easy to follow?

Start the demo

Enter Data Archive

In addition to the EMPLOYEE database, a second database is being developed with an archive of useful tables,
starting with the international country codes (These need updating to include the standard ID number as well)
If you have any useful tables like these either forward them to me for inclusion, or try downloading via CSV Import.
The archive database is selected from the drop down list under Database, and uses the same DEMO login.
