hi paul, thank you for help.
i have did: > launchctl unload org.firebird.gds.plist > launchctl load org.firebird.gds.plist > bevor your mail and again after your mail. but this cant fix the problem then my failure was based on a mistake of the real function of the /etc/services file. the original line in /etc/services looks like : gds_db 3050/udp # gds_db gds_db 3050/tcp # gds_db and many lines lower i have set my own entries: gds_db 5143/udp # gds_db (buhl) gds_db 5143/tcp # gds_db (buhl) but without disabling (comment) the upper entries. so in my /etc/services was the gds_db enries „doubled“ set. wow, this was the failure! no it works as expected. i have meant bevore, all entries in this file can simple set or changed as needed. but because the upper entries was processed earlier, (maybe) the lower entries was ignored then. is this a special design from firebird? regards rené Am 04.03.2015 um 13:58 schrieb 'Paul Beach' [email protected] [firebird-support] <[email protected]>: > I am on 10.10.2 and the instructions below worked for me without a problem... > I saw the port number switching from 3050 -> 3051 > > But you must: > launchctl unload org.firebird.gds.plist > launchctl load org.firebird.gds.plist > after changing the port no. > > Paul > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: 04 March 2015 01:39 > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [firebird-support] Firebird SQL Classic-Server 2.5.3 in OSX > 10.10.2 > > hi paul, > > thank your for help. > > bevore my question i have changed the /etc/service file to this: > > gds_db 5143/udp # gds_db (buhl) > gds_db 5143/tcp # gds_db (buhl) > > (without „/„ like the other entrys in this file) > > since this, firebird has stpped/started many times (reloading,reboot) > but firebird seems to ignore the etc/service file on my system.
