Hi,

I'm trying to connect to a Firebird database via JayBird.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work:

I ran the DriverExample.java from the example folder in JayBird.
It fails with an error message, that the firebird client library can't
be found (see below).

The libjaybird.so is located in Eclipse's build path. The Firebird
client libraries are also present (Debian SID)

> ldconfig -p | grep fbclient

libfbclient.so.2 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libfbclient.so.2
libfbclient.so.1 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libfbclient.so.1

Other database access, e.g. with FlameRobin works fine.

I've no idea what's going wrong. It would be great, if someone could help.

Best regards,
Tomas
