Subject Problems with type2 driver
Author Carsten Schäfer
Hi,
I want to do some tests with type2 Version of Jaybird,  (new CVS-Build, Firebird 1.5RC8, JDK1.4.2_03,WinXP) 
but do not get it working:
if i use connection string
jdbc:firebirdsql:native:d:/database/ruebig.gdb (this is for local databases, normal Firebird-Installation, right ?)
i get the following exception
org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBSQLException: Resource Exception. Unable to complete network request to host "d".
Failed to locate host machine.
The specified name was not found in the hosts file or Domain Name Services.
Reason: Unable to complete network request to host "d".
Failed to locate host machine.
The specified name was not found in the hosts file or Domain Name Services.
 at org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBDataSource.getConnection(FBDataSource.java:106)
 at org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBDriver.connect(FBDriver.java:218)
 
I also tried the embedded Version with a connection string like this:
jdbc:firebirdsql:embedded:d:/database/ruebig.gdb
i get the following exception org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBSQLException: Resource Exception. bad parameters on attach or create database
CHARACTER SET WIN1252 is not defined
Reason: bad parameters on attach or create database
CHARACTER SET WIN1252 is not defined
 at org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBDataSource.getConnection(FBDataSource.java:106)
 at org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBDriver.connect(FBDriver.java:218)
How to specify the character-ser for my connections ?
I used lc_ctype=WIN1252 as a property.
if i don't specify a character set i get a reproducable crash of the jvm after some time.
i have attached the error-pid.
 
mfg
