Err yes. Just a bit.

As it does for me.

Nope. gds_db = interbase/firebird = 3050 as per IANA

hi paul,

thank you for help.

i have did:
> launchctl unload org.firebird.gds.plist
> launchctl load org.firebird.gds.plist
> 

bevor your mail and again after your mail.
but this cant fix the problem then my failure was based on a mistake of the 
real function of the /etc/services file.

the original line in /etc/services looks like :
gds_db  3050/udp# gds_db
gds_db  3050/tcp# gds_db

and many lines lower i have set my own entries:
gds_db  5143/udp# gds_db (buhl)
gds_db  5143/tcp# gds_db (buhl)

but without disabling (comment) the upper entries.

so in my /etc/services was the gds_db enries „doubled“ set.
wow, this was the failure!

no it works as expected.

i have meant bevore, all entries in this file can simple set or changed as 
needed.
but because the upper entries was processed earlier,
(maybe) the lower entries was ignored then.

is this a special design from firebird?

I am on 10.10.2 and the instructions below worked for me without a problem...
I saw the port number switching from 3050 -> 3051

But you must:
launchctl unload org.firebird.gds.plist
launchctl load org.firebird.gds.plist
after changing the port no.

Re: [firebird-support] Firebird SQL Classic-Server 2.5.3 in OSX 10.10.2

2015-03-04 Thread René Colombe firebirdsql-l...@colombe.biz [firebird-support]
hi helen,

thank your for help.

my settings was already:
> RemoteServiceName = gds_db
> RemoteServicePort = 5143
> 

and i have tested no with:
> # RemoteServiceName = gds_db
> RemoteServicePort = 5143
> 

after restart the service (and the hwole maschine),
firebird is watching again on port 3050 :-(
if i scan the for open ports locally, i have a response from firebird gds on 
port 3050

both „known“ settings in /etc/service and firebird.conf are ignored from 
firebird in osx.
i think there must be other settings in other files.

there are two other "more osx like“ setting files in firebird:

1.
/Library/Frameworks/Firebird.framework/A/Resources/FirebirdSS/StartupParameters.plist

content of StartupParameters.plist
-
{
Description = "Firebird SQL Database server";
Provides= ("Firebird Server");
Requires= ("DirectoryServices");
Uses= ("Disks", "NFS");
OrderPreference = "None";
}


2.
/Library/LaunchDeamons/org.firebird.gdl.plist

content of org.firebird.gdl.plist:
---

http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd";>


Disabled

EnvironmentVariables

PATH

/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/bin:/Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin

InetdCompatibility

Wait


InitGroups

Label
org.firebird.gds
OnDemand

ProgramArguments


/Library/Frameworks/Firebird.framework/Resources/bin/fb_inet_server

Sockets

Listeners

SockFamily
IPv4
SockServiceName
gds_db
SockType
stream


UserName
firebird


———

maybe there are optional settings in the „Listeners“ part from 
org.firebird.gdl.plist
but i dont know which exactly.

Editing the services file does not open ports in the firewall.  Have you 
checked whether port 5143 is open in the firewall?

Next, have you tried setting the port in firebird.conf:

# TCP Protocol Settings
#
# The TCP Service name/Port number to be used for client database
# connections.
#
# It is only necessary to change one of the entries, not both.  The
# order of precedence is the 'RemoteServiceName' (if an entry is
# found in the 'services.' file) then the 'RemoteServicePort'.
#
# Type: string, integer
#
#RemoteServiceName = gds_db
#RemoteServicePort = 3050

The commented settings are the Firebird defaults.  You can try to override them 
by deleting the comment marker # on RemoteServicePort and setting the new port:

#RemoteServiceName = gds_db
RemoteServicePort = 5143

After saving the changes in firebird.conf, don't forget to 
1) open the new port in the firewall and 
2) shut down and restart any  fb-inet_server processes. 

I'm not sure, but you might have to restart xinetd before step 2), as well.  I 
don't have access to an OSX box to test that.
