You can't post attachments in this list.  Report the error message and also 
check the latest entries in firebird.log.

What "client" did you try to reinstall?  My suspicion (and possibly theirs) is 
that someone installed something that overwrote the Firebird 1.5 client.  Check 
again with Ostendo support.  Ask them (1) where the application expects to find 
the Firebird client when running with a local user and (2) whether it expects 
to load fbclient.dll or gds32.dll.

Post the text of the error message and also paste the entries from firebird.log 
that correspond to the times of the failed connection attempts.

And please remove all that signature guff from your future postings to these 
lists.

[firebird-support] Connection issues

2015-05-27 Thread 'seanspcpower IT Services' t...@seanspcpower.com [firebird-support]
Hi,


 


I currently manage a small business that is running a Firebird database
version 1.5.3.


I know this is probably very old and it needs updating but the trouble is
the business owners only have 1 user that uses it and it has been running
without fail for years.


The issue is lately the 1 client can no longer connect to the database using
the client application.


The application Ostendo and we have the Firebird database runs on an sbs2008
box.


It is a domain controller.


Exchange server.


DHCP


DNS


File and printer sharing.


Vipre Business Premium console dashboard


Vipre client runs on the server and the firewall policy is disabled.


Windows firewall is running but I have ports 3050 and 9050 open.


 


It was working fine until a few days ago.


The user says he was using Friday ok and came in Monday morning and when he
launches the ostendo client gets the following error (see attached).


 


We spoke to Ostendo support and they said to just reinstall the client but
that made no difference.


I am just understanding the error message not sure how to troubleshoot as I
know nothing about Ostendo and Firebird databases.


Please advise.


 


Regards,


 


Sean Wright

It means that Firebird crashes, unfortunately. Could you provide me with full 
memory dump when (if) next crash happens ?

Ehm, just did some math on Karol's results. ;-)



And I guess his numbers present the entire restore time or did I miss something?

Well, I haven't said that a Firebird restore is that slow in GENERAL as shown 
with the numbers above. It is in Karol's environment.

  To be even more honest, measure time of restore without building indices and 
non-table metadata objects. Else your statement is about nothing, sorry
