   RTFM Language Reference. In SQL queries PSQL variables must be used with 
colon.

[firebird-support] How safe is the restart of Firebird 3.0 Windows service/Nix daemon?

2019-01-04 Thread jonatan.laurit...@yahoo.dk [firebird-support]
Hi!
 

 Sometimes I need to alter procedures on running Firebird 3.0 database and I 
need to disconnect all the users for doing that (there is 'procedure in use' 
control exception, there is no similar control for triggers). Sometimes I have 
no other option than to restart Firebird Windows service/Nix daemon and then 
run alter procedure script.
 

 So - my question is - how safe is the usual restart of Windows service/Nix 
daemon? Can I rely that Firebird gracefully makes all the pending writes to the 
disk, releases all the necesary resources and (the most important part of my 
quetion) that the restart can not lead to the gds inconsistency check errors?

2019-01-04 Thread jonatan.laurit...@yahoo.dk [firebird-support]
Especially - what happens to the SQL (especially update) commands that are 
running during the restart of the service? I know that service is not waiting 
for the completion of those commands. I fear that some interrupted commands can 
introduce gds corruption errors, that is my greated concern in the case of 
routine use of service restart.

   You just must perform ALTER in WAIT transaction.
   If it is not enough, use database shutdown with force disconnect of ordinary 
users.
   In both cases there is no need to restart server.

[firebird-support] Possible problem garbage collector in 32bit 2.5.8

2019-01-04 Thread dam...@wxs.nl [firebird-support]
I have a few customers still working on XP with Firebird 2.5.8 32 bit. And it 
seems that a problem is introduced in 2.5.7 or 2.5.8. In semi regular periods, 
the Firebird server hangs (hogs CPU). This reappears after a restart of the 
Firebird server and accessing the database again. Only solution is making a 
backup, without Garbage collection, and restore. I can deliver databases with 
the problem for reproduction.

2019-01-04 Thread dam...@wxs.nl [firebird-support]
I tested a few problematic databases with gfix:

 

 Number of record level errors   : 1
Number of database page errors  : 374

Number of record level errors   : 2
Number of database page errors  : 67

 Number of record level errors   : 2
 

 Because some customers have a bad habit when switching of computers, I 
register abnormal termination of my program. I can also detect power failures 
etc with this feature. But it seems normal.

   But the databases definitely got corrupted. Do they have forced writes on?

Number of database page errors  : 374

Number of record level errors   : 2

 So there are problems in the database. I have added a feature in my software 
for the usage and termination registration. It seems al normal. So no bad 
behaviour or power failures. Maybe it is the hardware. But suddenly a large 
increase of problems with a few different customers puts my suspicion also on 
the latest Firebird 2.5.8 self.

Yes, I have shutdown Firebird (via Services) and copied the FDB file. After 
restart of the Firebird service and restart of my own program, Firebird "hangs" 
again. I took the FDB file to my own computer (Firebird 2.5.8 64 bit) and did 
run gstat on it.
