aliases.conf # reading error ---------------------------- Key: CORE-4028 URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-4028 Project: Firebird Core Issue Type: Bug Components: Documentation, Engine, GBAK, GFIX, Installation, Security Affects Versions: 2.5.2, 2.1.5, 2.0.7, 2.5.1, 2.1.4, 2.5.0, 2.0.6, 3.0 Initial, 2.1.3, 2.1.2, 2.0.5, 2.1.1, 2.1.0, 3.0 Alpha 1, 3.0 Beta 1, 2.5.3, 2.1.6, 3.0.0 Environment: ALL (Windows, Linux) Reporter: Laszlo Szakmari
Firebird can not connect to any database defined in "aliases.conf" if file or folder name contains # char. Example : myalias = C:\#MyFirstFolder\MyDatabase.FDB - There is no mention in the aliases.conf file's comment section about that (should be like at firebird.conf) - It is a common practice to change folder or filenames beginning with # or _ signs to place them to first in the list The Solution would be, if there would be a "# disabling sign" like: @ and the engine or any other utilities (like gbak, gfix) would recognize this and ignore any # signs in that line beginning with that Example: @myAlias = C:\#MyFirstFolder\MyDatabase.FDB Thanks ! -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master HTML5, CSS3, ASP.NET, MVC, AJAX, Knockout.js, Web API and much more.
