Hi Everyone, I am almost embarrassed to ask, but, I am having a great deal of difficulty with setting this up.
I have a brand new installation of Ubuntu LTS Server 14.04 I have installed firebird superclassic. I have used gbak to restore a database without any problems I can connect to my newly restored database via isql-fb without the network specified. I can connect to my newly restored database via isql-fb with localhost specified. I can not connect to the machines actual ip address ie 192.168.0.87 The following commands work isql-fb -user SYSDBA -password masterkey /mnt/raid/firebird/mcf.001 isql-fb -user SYSDBA -password masterkey localhost:/mnt/raid/firebird/mcf.001 But, the following command does not work. isql-fb -user SYSDBA -password masterkey localhost:/mnt/raid/firebird/mcf.001 I found that /etc/firebird/2.5/firebird.conf had RemoteBindAddress = localhost specified. I first remarked it out, restarted firebird but alas, that did not work. I then tried to specify RemoteBindAddress = 192.168.0.87, restarted firebird but again, that did not work I also tried RemoteBindAddress = Any but had no luck as well. I do not have a firewall installed, I am not using the guardian. I have tried this on two other installations with identical results. Has anyone been able to get Firebird 2.5 SuperClassic to work on Ubuntu Server 14.04?
