Ahh, success (I think!)... I ran isql with DYLD_PRINT_LIBRARIES, and confirmed that everything worked ok.
I think placed plugins/libEngine12.dylib one level above (not beneath) my bin folder, and now my CREATE statement works! That is really awkward though, having to have the firebird plugins outside of my bin folder... Can I control this path somewhere? I already have a bin\plugins for my own plugins, Qt plugins, etc... I would very much prefer to use that!

I have not changed any settings, however (so all settings are commented out) I also placed firebird.msg file in the same folder. I've also tried running without firebird.conf, no change in behaviour. I have set DYLD_PRINT_LIBRARIES=1, and noticed that plugins/libEngine12.dylib is never loaded. That's surprising to me, on desktop it is being loaded quite early on.

Do you have firebird.conf at the libfbclient folder ?
