Sudheer,

From Release Notes Page 6 and 7

Linux compatibilities
Because of a history of problems with the GNU C++ compiler, Firebird 1.5
Linux versions need higher
versions of the glibc runtimes than previously. This means,
unfortunately, that we are in a period
where the capability of a particular distro to install and run the 1.5
binaries is somewhat hard to
predict.
The following matrix may help. However, we welcome further information.
Please share your
experiences with these and other distros in the firebird-devel forum.

Distro Level Classic Superserver
Red Hat 7.x No No
8.0 Yes Yes


see you !
