Why are you not using ./startofbiz.sh shell script?
Regarding your boss...
If you need a strong framework to build upon, OFBiz is what you are
looking for.
OFBiz is *not* just a framework; it is an Open Source ERP system that
can be used out of the box.
Of course, but this is true for all the ERP systems, including
commercial ones, most of the companies will want to customize it to fit
their custom/special/niche processes and OFBiz is *great* in this:
developing/customizing using OFBiz's entities, services and widgets is
efficient and easy.
There are still some areas that are not fully implemented, the most
remarkable one is the accounting application: we will hopefully fill
this gap soon.

If you need CRM functionality, warehouse and purchasing
dashboards, built in Business Intellegence tools, and you can deal with
GPL style license software you might also look at Opentaps. (NOTE: This
is not a sales pitch for opentaps, just a heads up that there are
options in the OFBiz world, especially if you are looking for something
to show the pointy headed boss).
Welcome aboard!
