We are in the middle of letter our users upgrade their database from 1.56 to 3.x at their will. Users can upgrade when they want to--so we install 1.56 embedded db as gds32.dll and 3.x as fblcinet.dll in the same directory (using IBObjects, we can select which DLL is used). Almost all of our

[firebird-support] FB connection over a VPN

By default, my app (Delphi with IBObjects) use FB 1.56 embedded with an option to run as client server (C/S). One of my customers wants to set it up to run C/S over a VPN. They tried using 1.56 but it timed out. They then tried switching to 2.5 (including changing out the DLL) but it still

My (Delphi) application uses FB embedded (1.56 by default right now; connection via IBObjects) and works great. I have a user who wants to run it over a VPN and it times out on him. He replaced the 1.56 library with 2.5 and installed 2.5 on the server, but this did not fix the problem. Any

Thank you. Running 15. The results are pretty raw data--something like a pie chart would be nice. Any way of getting the API calls to know tables and their sizes? I don't mind creating something like this.

2017-05-09 Thread dres...@tbinc.com [firebird-support]
I have a number of growing databases on my server and would like to occasionally see how much space each table is taking in the database--there may be some log files that could be cleaned up now and then. Many of my tables include blob fields, so this becomes different than just doing record

We are using FB 1.56, and have a customer using it over a VPN with less than stellar results (meaning very slow). We are considering FB 3--will this solve some of the slowness? Any other comments? Thank you, Ed Dressel
