Perhaps the Pi is slower to acquire its IP address and this leads to timeout in fbguard. Just commenting out the setting allows connection from everywhere — entering an IP is useful only if there are several network interfaces. Using a firewall for giving selective access is better anyway. -- dam

Found it ??? On x86/amd64 I usually have to config RemoteBindAddress with computer ip number after install , as connections where rejected . I realized I was also configuring the same on raspberry pi. After commenting that line con firebird.conf, after restart and power off / power on, service started on boot . Pablo Sánchez

Filing as a new one. So you are saying that during system start-up, firebird3.0-server can't be started within the default timeout of 90 seconds? Is the system overloaded during that time? If it starts fine later (presumably when the system is not overloaded), then perhaps you want to change the default service start timeout in /etc/systemd/system.conf (DefaultTimeoutStartSec). -- dam

Bug#859234: firebird3.0-server: firebird server may not be ready to serve requests after service start
Package: firebird3.0-server
Version: 3.0.1.32609.ds4-14
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
On a heavily loaded system, starting firebird3.0-server service doesn't
guarantee that daemon is ready to serve requests.
This is caused by the fact that the init.d script/systemd service starts
fbguard, which exists before making sure the fbserver process is ready to
accept connections.
>From guard.cpp:
165 // detach from controlling tty
166 if (daemon && fork()) {
167 exit(0);
168 }
169 divorce_terminal(0);
What follows is the start of the server process (vfork + exec), racing with the
exit of the main guardian process.
Thinking of a possible fix, perhaps the server process could signal the
guardian somehow that it is ready to accept connections. The parent guardian
process should exit after receiving the signal.
