I agree with the version, as the company comes out with different
version of there client software, that does an update change.
The other part of not switch off the Firebird before copying would
create a fault even though no one was working on the database?
Because I did try making sure the Client program running from the Linux
server through Samba will be the exact version as the one running
correctly from Windows XP, which works.
Still showing it's corrupted, according to the support person from
Delfin company.

In your description you did not include a step to shutdown the server
or database on Windows before copying it to Linux. Did you do that?

I've been dealing with this company support. https://www.delter.co.za/
I'm an IT professional. Support Windows, Linux, Apple Mac.
I have a technical question. When I copy a firebird database, from
Windows to the Linux file system through Windows. Deactivate Linux
firebird 2.5 first then replace the database. Reactivate the
database on
Linux. Then start a Windows program that communicates with the
database
from an IP address.
The software developer has somehow put a hook in the software.
That if
the path has changed the database needs to be reset, as in
re-registered.
The big frustration I'm having is the file I'm copying is not
corrupt.
But when I'm starting it from the Linux server. It corrupt.
This is according to the support person from delfin.
Originally the firebird database was working perfectly on the Linux
computer.
There is something in there software to me that has changed that
somehow
won't see the Database correctly.
Really hope someone could halp clarify why the database goes from not
corrupt from Windows to corrupt on Linux.
Kind Regards
Shane
