I was playing with the different access configurations for FB 3 in firebird.conf. (with Alpha2)
With this configuration: SharedCache = true SharedDatabase = true and server installed as SS. (ie, instsvc i ) Access via localhost is denied: C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_3_0>isql -user SYSDBA -password masterkey localhost:employee Statement failed, SQLSTATE = 28000 Your user name and password are not defined. Ask your database administrator to set up a Firebird login. Direct access produces this error: C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_3_0>isql -user SYSDBA -password masterkey employee Statement failed, SQLSTATE = 0A000 feature is not supported -SharedDatabase and SharedCache settings cannot be both enabled at once I got the same results after changing instsvc to use i -c (ie run as CS) There seems to be two separate issues here: - The error thrown when accessing host:db seems erroneous. un/pw are defined and correct. - direct access throws 'feature not supported' despite the fact that the combination is clearly documented as legal in firebird.conf. The reason I was trying this was to try and answer Pavel's question - how do you run SuperClassic under FB3 on Windows? AFAICT it is not possible. I don't mind - SuperClassic seems to share the worst features of SuperServer and ClassicServer, and we should officially deprecate in FB3 (imo.) But the questions will be asked - how can we run SC under FB3? and does it make any sense?
