Simon, If you not define alias to your database when you created it the
firebird try create in c:\windows\system32 ou c:\windows, perhaps the
W2k3 block this.

Do it create one alias (in firebird_home_diretory\alias.conf) like:
test1 C:\DATABASES\FIREBIRD\TEST1.FDB and try again.

Good look

Assunto: [firebird-support] Create Database - is denied by server
administrator.


Have a problem trying to create a database, background is

Windows 2003 Web Server
Firebird 1.5.0.4306
IBO Components
Permissions are fine as I could create db from Ibo console on a remote
machine.


When creating a database (on local machine) the following error occurs:

Access to database "C:\DATABASES\FIREBIRD\TEST1.FDB" is denied by server
administrator'.

Does anybody have any idea what the problem could be?
