Hi friends in firebird,
I got a database that was created with a firebird 1.5 on windows.
Now I installed Firebird-1.5.2.4731-Win32.exe an a windows 7 and on a
windows 10 machine.
I copied also the following files into the UDF folder:
MD5
UdfArithmetic
UdfArithmetic.dll
UdfControl
UdfControl.dll
UdfDateTime
UdfDateTime.dll
UdfString
UdfString.dll
after some fiddling (I am new to firebird, and mostly working on linux)
I could connect to the database.
Now I would like to use this databse under linux using firebird version 2.5
However the connection can not be established:
Use CONNECT or CREATE DATABASE to specify a database
SQL> connect "localhost:/home/robert/hermes/AFBS/VAS/VAS.fdb" user
'SYSDBA' password 'xxx';
Statement failed, SQLSTATE = 08006
Unable to complete network request to host "localhost".
now my questions:
do I need to load linux verions of the UDFs
how would I load this database under linux. do i need to convert it.
thanks
robert
