I removed the Synaptic Packet Manager download of Geneweb 5.02 and cleaned by my machine.
Then I downloaded version gw-6.01-linux.tgz from http://opensource.geneanet.org/projects/geneweb
and unpacked with Archive Manager to my home directory. home/Geneweb-6.01
I moved my existing gwb files into the bases folder inside Genweb-6.01.
Next I executed gwd from same folder and then went to the browser (firefox) to load localhost:2317 to get the Bases screen for version 6.01.
Enter in a database name (must be correctly spelt with capitals/lowercase) and hey presto.
Note: The Bases menu will not list available databases in the related folder.
OK finally. So this is how I got it to work.
