RE: [firebird-support] reset sysdba password without loose existing users
Hi, What the person meant was that if a database is opened using a firebird server process, that process looks for a valid password for the sysdba user. This is the situation you are in now. But, If you take that Database and open it in embedded mode, meaning that it isn’t using the server process. The Embedded mode only looks for the user to exist. It doesn’t care about the password. Once you connect, you can then issue the appropriate command to change the password.

RE: [firebird-support] reset sysdba password without loose existing users
What you'll need to do is to download the firebird embedded edition and unzip it into a folder. If you are going to try to change the password from the command prompt you'll need to copy the isql.exe file from your original installation into the folder where you unzipped the embedded version. If you are going to use a tool like flamerobin copy the fbemded.dll to its folder. I'm not sure but you may need to rename it to fbclient.dll for flamerobin to use it. If you are using a tool like IBExpert or DBWorkbench then were it ask for the client dll point it to the firebird embeded client. You'll then be able to connect to the security database and issue the commands to change the password. ---In firebird-support@yahoogroups.com, wrote : Hi, What the person meant was that if a database is opened using a firebird server process, that process looks for a valid password for the sysdba user.

I have seen several environments where there have been Firebird Windows Services running in parallel and a faulty connect string pretty much resulted in using the wrong Firebird server. So, for your case, make sure that no other Firebird server is running, e.g. explicitly stopping them in the Windows services panel, in case you are on Windows. -- With regards, Thomas Steinmaurer http://www.upscene.com Professional Tools and Services for Firebird FB TraceManager, IB LogManager, Database Health Check, Tuning etc.
