Server lets any number of users connect to the same database. My gds32.dll is not a renamed fbembedded (though I did try to do that without success). It is a 349k dll from 5/3/2005 and all I can tell you is that without it, firebird embedded will not work. I installed my app on a clean machine (a virtual image with nothing on it) and it would not work until I added that file (by dumb luck). Making a copy of the fbembedded.dll to fbclient.dll or gds32.dll does not work reliably (I think it worked once on my PC).
I am a relative newbie here, so maybe there's something I am doing wrong. Sorry to take up time on this thread. I'll look for a response but will not pursue this issue further on this thread. Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dean Harding Sent: Monday, January 01, 2007 11:35 PM To: 'For users and developers of the Firebird .NET providers' Subject: Re: [Firebird-net-provider] Connection string for embedded firebird > I'm sorry to keep bugging you on this but doesn't super-server lock the > database file? If so, doesn't it have the same drawbacks as embedded? But since super server mode is a server - that is, a separate process to IIS - there's no trouble. There's only ever one super-server mode server process, no matter how many clients connect to it. Embedded is like making every client *process* into a super-server. If there's only one client process, there's no problem. But with web sites, that can be a tough thing to guarantee.
