Hi

I have JForum running locally on my PC and it is using a Firebird 2.1 database.

I have had to change some code and some sql statements but I think it is more or less done.

I am not familiar enough with JForum to be able to test it fully but it all seems to be working.

If there is a JForum guru out there that can help, I could give them a fixed ip address where they can access my local system to do some testing.

So, please let me know if you can help out and we can arrange a test time.

I have to say that JForum looks a really nice piece of software, it's well written and this has really helped to make this quite a painless process.

When it's all tested I will donate all my Firebird scripts etc to you guys and you'll have another database that JForum can be deployed on. Cool.

Hi

I have JForum working on Firebird 2 database. And all looks well.

If any one is interested, I'll hand over the code but if not, then I'll continue testing etc.

For those of you that do not know Firebird, it is:

Free.
Holds UTF-8 encoded data.
Fully SQL compliant with db procs, triggers etc.
Very fast.
Supports transactions.
Very easy to set up and maintain.
I have used it for over 7 years and it's never crashed on me.


My opinion of JForum is that it's a great forum, I've really enjoyed using it.

Great work guys.
