problem connecting to firebird server
abubin:
ok it's me again and this time I am trying to setup a firebird server in my linux server. I am having problems getting PVD to work with this external server.
I am running firebird server 2.5.2 on ubuntu 12.04.
I have started the server and try to telnet into the server and it responded well on port 3050 (default port for firebird).
However, when I try to connect to this db from my windows using pvd_portable, it doesn't work. I get crash to desktop. PVD_portable will close without any warning. Any idea how to solve this?
nostra:
What is your PVD version?
How do you enter the database path?
abubin:
latest pvd_portable version, 1.0.2.7.
Firebird database path I key in the IP address of my server: 192.168.1.223
nostra:
You must enter the path like this:
192.168.1.223:/path to the database
abubin:
ah..ok i manage to connect to the database now. Had to use FlameRobin (firebird gui) to do some setting up of firebird server. Now I can connect to the pvd database. However, using firebird database, the "save images in database file" is checked and gray out. That means the images must be saved in the DB when using firebird server?
