Hi
You must chose the OS that best suits both the application and your existing skills. We use CentOS, because we care comfortable with it, and like the long lifecycle. Anyone one else may take a different view.
I've fished out the email that you sent to us, where you explained what the problem was:-

but when I type the command :
/usr/local/src/a2billing# mysql -u root -p < DataBase/mysql/Mysql-5.x/a2billing-createdb-user.sql -bash: DataBase/mysql/Mysql-5.x/a2billing-createdb-user.sql: No such file or directory
Comparing that with the set of instructions in the debian install you linked to here, I can now see where the problem lies.
The system has told you that there is no file at
DataBase/mysql/Mysql-5.x/ called a2billing-createdb-user.sql, so you need to go back and check that the path is correct.
Checking the path, we find that a2billing-createdb-user.sql is actually located in DataBase\mysql-5.x\ so should you change the command to read:-
Quote:
mysql -u root -p < DataBase/Mysql-5.x/a2billing-createdb-user.sql
it will most likely work for you.
However, you wrote to us 12 days ago, and turned down our offer of installation and training, which you are welcome to do, however, with the greatest of respect, I do find myself concerned that you are stuck with this very elementary mistake which you have not been able to sort out for yourself over the intervening time, and I would strongly suggest that you do purchase some assistance from somewhere to get the installation done in a secure and stable manner, so you can get on with the job of building and selling your products, not mucking around with the installation, that you do not have to do very often anyway, if at all.
I express these concerns in the light of a comment in a recent post -

viewtopic.php?f=22&t=6560 however, I did not write the tutorial to which you refer.
There are some of our customers on these forums who have passed the business of installation over to us, and got on with learning the application thenselves, with a great deal of success.
