Subject Embedded server not working in Win98SE
Author Diego Barros
Hi all,

I have an application that I want to use the FB embedded server with. I am testing it on a clean install of Windows 98 SE. The application's directory is "C:\myapp\app.exe". In the "C:\myapp\" folder I have the following files:

firebird.msg
gds32.dll
myapp.exe
myapp.fdb

When I run myapp.exe I get the following error:

"InterBase library gds32.dll not found in the path. Please install Interbase to use this functionality."

What else do I need to do to get this working? I have tried to get this working by copying gds32.dll to into "c:\windows\system", "c:\windows\system32" and in to "c:\windows\".

BTW I have also set the database component's DatabaseName property to "C:\myapp\myapp.fdb" instead of prefixing it with "localhost" as I do on my development machine.

The application is written in Delphi 7 using the standard Delphi IB components.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Diego
