Hi Support
I have to support Firebird 1.5.6 on a Gentoo X64 servers. I understand
that 1.5.6 is not supported anymore. I modify the install script to
install the Superserver version, file
FirebirdSS-1.5.6.5026-0.nptl.i686.tar.gz .
All is well as I can start the server with
su firebird -c "/opt/firebird/bin/fbmgr -start"
and stop with
su firebird -c "/opt/firebird/bin/fbmgr -shut -user sysdba -password
masterkey"
I can run isql all looks fine.
But I want to develop a init start script that uses the pidfile. When
looking at the documentation and other google search I see that they all
list -pidfile <filename> as a fbmgr option
So when I do su firebird -c "/opt/firebird/bin/fbmgr -start -pidfile
/run/fb.pid", I get *invalid switch syntax error in command* *line*,
also when I do this
DLBox ~ # /opt/firebird/bin/fbmgr -help
Usage: fbmgr -command [-option [parameter]]
or fbmgr<RETURN>
FBMGR> command [-option [parameter]]
shut [-now] shutdown server
show show host and user
user <user_name> set user name
password <password> set DBA password
help prints help text
quit quit prompt mode
I cannot find any information about this. If anyone could shed some
information it would appreciated.
Regards
Kilburn
