Dear Helen, Today I did a clean installation for FB 3.0 (from zip package) and get DB migrated to version 3.0. It makes me so happy.
The real reason for previous problem is caused by security database file initialization step. *************** Initialize security database by isql (FB 3.0). > isql -user sysdba MYIMPORT SQL> create user SYSDBA password 'masterkey'; SQL> commit; SQL> quit; *************** After this, everything works fine. Thanks for your great help anyway.

I am not convinced you have that authentication configured properly nor that your application is really loading the Fb3 client library. Some reality checks: 1. Make sure that you deleted the # symbol when you configured AuthServer. 2. It might be worthwhile to change the ordering of the list in AuthClient, so that Legacy_Auth appears first. 2. Get rid of SRP from the UserManager list. Make it so that Legacy_UserManager is only entry. 3. Don't forget to save firebird.conf, and to restart Firebird. 4. Put fbclient.dll in the same folder as your application. It would probably be a good idea to reboot the client machine, while you are at it, in case the old version is still loaded. > I would like to test it with a fresh installation of FB 3.0 later. > I should make my description more clear for my steps. > 0.

Use isql, to run: SQL> alter user sysdba set password 'masterkey'; > respond: Database: myimport,&n bsp;User: SYSDBA Without the modifications to firebird.conf, that step operates on the SYSDBA that is configured under UserManager SRP. It will NOT work with applications connecting via Legacy_UserManager. You have to create SYSDBA for use with Legacy_UserManager. You need to use the USING PLUGIN clause, as indicated in my previous posting. > 4. Open new database file in IBExpert with FB 3.0 client library > (fbclient.dll), it works. > 5.
