Database error on fresh install

<< < (10/10)

buah:
I found this line (#128) in firebird.conf:"UdfAccess = None". That could explain a lot...

swinster:
I've been saying UDF, I really meant UNC relating to remote path names  :-[. However, as was show, even mapped drives don't work, although I'm guessing they will resolve to a UNC path.

buah:
Of course! Firebird QuickStart Guide:
--- Quote ---You cannot locate components of the server, or any database, on a mapped drive, a filesystem share or a network filesystem.
--- End quote ---

To add one more issue, which I recently resolved. In case of such an error messages
--- Quote ---2:Unable to complete network request to host "@1".
Failed to establish a connection.
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond afer period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
Unsuccessful execution caused by a system error that precludes successful execution of subsequent statements
Error Code: 401


4:unavailable database
Unsuccessful execution caused by an unavailable resource.
Error Code: 55


ERROR
Failed to open database
--- End quote ---

most likely you'll have to open 3050 TCP port on your firewall, or any other TCP port defined in firebird.conf, line:
#RemoteServiceName = gds_db
#RemoteServicePort = 3050

Another solution is to add fbserver.exe and/or fbguard.exe services to an exception list in firewall.

I haven't checked if this issue was treated earlier in forum, so I apologize if it was.
