Sorry for cross posting. I've posted this on firebird-support without answers, maybe because this setup is not so common...

Deinstalled everything and installed it again using: sudo pkg install firebird-server-2.5.2_1 I noted the file /usr/local/etc/firebird/fbintl.conf contains info about character sets. This file has the lines: <intl_module fbintl> filename $(this)/intl icu_versions default </intl_module> Where the variable "$(this)" is pointing?. I have the fbintl in the directory /usr/local/libexec/firebird/intl owned by "root". Is this correct?, I've tested changing it to firebird:firebird, but the errror still persists. BTW, I can connect to databases without problems. The only thing I can't do is restore this database. -- Leonardo M.
