RE: [firebird-support] Firebird 2.5 under Windows 8 64bit

2014-02-21 Thread Leyne, Sean 


 I will check what Dmitry has suggested.
 
 Btw, the fb server is installed in the \program files (x86) folder and run 
 as a
 service and  it's a local machine, not a server, so the application is also 
 run on
 this machine.

The Firebird install kits are not Windows 7+ (Windows 2008?/2012+) complaint, 
they install components into incorrect path which are now access restricted.

The only way to install Firebird on such platforms is to install into a root 
based path (ie. c:\Firebird\)

Hello, Dirk!

DS The following errors are repeatedly found in the firebird.log
DS operating system directive CreateFile failed
DS Access denied

first check what antivirus software or proxy is running on that
server.
Any soft that intercepts file operations, network operations, etc, can
affect Firebird working with DB or clients via network.

Hello Dirk,

 I have a customer where Firebird 2.5.2 (32bit) is running under Windows
 8 64bit.

 The following errors are repeatedly found in the firebird.log

 BARBAR (Server) Wed Feb 19 14:22:54 2014

  Error in isc_attach_database() API call when working
 with security database

  operating system directive CreateFile failed

  Access denied

 BARBAR (Server) Wed Feb 19 14:37:42 2014

  INET/inet_error: read errno = 10054

 What causes these errors, especially the first?

Well, I don't have Windows 8 running, but it sounds a bit like a 
permission issue, e.g. having Firebird installed in the program files 
folder and running Firebird under a user with restricted privileges ...

Is Firebird running as a Windows service or as an application?

Other than that, what Dmitry has suggested.

In addition to what Thomas adn Dmitry have written: If fb is running as 
application, there is one more thing you should take care of: Where is 
firebird installed?
%ProgramFiles% and %ProgramFiles(X86)% are under some protection, so 
that a regular user will have problems to change data.
AFAIK fb running as application will run with current user rights, so 
that may be your problem.
If running as Service, fb is running in system\service context and 
should not have those problems.
