Mark,

since v2.5 it is possible to use Firebird embedded without install of full CS 
package.
All you need is to create the almost the same folders layout as with full 
Firebird package, including bin, intl, lib, plugin, UDF folders and its 
contents.
Create simlink lib/libfbembed.so.2.5 pointing to the lib/libfbembed.so.2.5.2
Remove not needed binaries from bin folder, if necessary

Set FIREBIRD to the root folder.
Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the lib folder (not to the root !)

this is all.

Good luck,
Vlad

Hi Elize,

You need to follow the Omni upgrade instructions we gave you.

And follow instructions received from Omni support, not a general Firebird 
newsgroup.

 Anything like this available anywhere?

You can use POSITION(...)

but you will need to keep track of the number of occurrences yourself.

I'd say: starting migrating ;)

You could look at FreeAdhocUDF. It has several functions that are similar
to POSITION (for example F_SUBSTR ), see

RE: [firebird-support] Using Firebird SuperClassic and Embedded (SC) v2.5 on same server

2013-03-14 Thread Leyne, Sean


 LS External applications use a normal users, our internal
 LS applications use SYSDBA.  We want to even control our own
 LS applications from accessing the database
 
 Single shutdown mode allows only one connection (from SYSDBA or
 OWNER), so if you are able to assure that your maintenance app will put the
 DB in Single Shutdown mode and be the first one to connect to it just after
 that, you would be safe.

Thanks for the reminder.

There are other reasons why we want to have both instances installed.

I am looking for *details about the gotchas* (I think I recall a post about an 
environment variables for the lock manager), not about the alternate approaches.
