Hi Richard

I wouldn't use the firebird provider for interbase access.  It is not supported 
at all.  
I would seek for .net providers for interbase.  

kind regards

Alexander

Subject: [Firebird-net-provider] Hi everyone : new to this list,problem with 
DDEX


Hi,

 

I was wondering if anyone has had the possibility to try this Firebird.NET DDEX 
with Interbase 7.1 ?

 

I have finally managed to get the DDEX installed, by following some guidelines 
explained on a website.  But now - I have a problem with creating a new model.

 

It says:

 

"An Error occurred while connecting to the database. The database might be 
unavailable.  An exception of type 'System.Data.ProviderIncompatibleException' 
occurred.  The error message is: 'The provider did not return a 
ProviderManifestToken string.

The inner exception caught was of type 'System.FormatException' with this 
message : 'Input was not in correct format.'

 

I have no idea what this means.  All I know is that in 
FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient.DLL, I changed the GetServerVersion to return 
"7.1.0.0", instead of calling the necessary Firebird call in the GdDatabase v10 
code block.

The Dialect is 1 for Interbase.

 

Im using the Firebird.net client assembly fine otherwise, so im confused why 
the DDEX is now reporting a problem, very strange.

 

Anyone with some ideas or previous experience would be gratefully appreciated.

 

 

Kind Regards,
