Hmm, does it work if you install PVD on this machine and try to connect to the server?

I think You need to have the database file on the same computer that is running firebird (ie not accessed across a network). Options are

1) Stand alone PVD (with internal firebird) & Database file on same machine.
2) Firebird server running on a PC accessing database on same computer. Other local or remote users connect to firebird server.

Note in both cases database File is on same computer as firebird is running on.

The database file IS located on the same computer as the Firebird server.

patch:
Are you running firebird as a service (administrator) or program?
If running as a program, is it running with administrator rights or as a normal user.

I have had problems using a database after it has been opened by another user / administrator.

Service.

The link you provided seems like a good hint as to how I can proceed. I'll take a look at the thread...
