Firebird Embedded is completely standalone. But before you start your Java application, you have to set the $FIREBIRD variable in the same environment in which you start your Java application. In other words - create a script that sets the variable and then starts your Java code.

Hope this helps.

Betreff: [Firebird-Java] Re: failed to initialize jaybird native library / firebird client library

I guess that brings up more questions for me.

Is the embedded installation
(http://www.firebirdfaq.org/Firebird-Embedded-Linux-HOWTO.html)
completely standalone or do I need to also install the firebird server?

I know how to set the $FIREBIRD environment variable from the command
line, but how do I set that environment variable from within my java
application?
