I've only just recently installed the latest version of Firebird and developed a small test application and associated fdb on a Windows 8 desktop. I've copied the following Firebird files to the same folder as the exe but cannot connect to an embedded Firebird:
icudt30.dll icuin30.dll icuuc30.dll ib_util.dll fbclient.dll (renamed) I've also copied InterBase Objects (V5.2.0.8) IBSQL into the exe folder and tried connecting to the database via this client but get the same ISC ERROR CODE:335544375, ISC ERROR MESSAGE: unavailable database error. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Adam Did you read the release notes and the section on how to deploy the embedded server? You should because you are missing some files Alan
