already running that is using the gds_db service port (port 3050 by default).
The simplest scenario here is that the ibserver service was already running
"under its own steam" before *something* invoked the Guardian. Guardian
tries to start the engine service and is refused, because the resources are
already in use by the running ibserver.
If that is not the situation, then you need to find out why Guardian can't
find the server engine program. There could be several causes. As a
minimum, you need to define what is "client" (in your terms) and which
server version was installed.
All in all, you appear to have a confused installation there...probably due
to installing Firebird in two different locations, or file-copying instead
of using the installer, or installing Firebird without uninstalling
InterBase or a previous installation of Firebird.
Also tell what host operating systems you are talking about (client and
server). Win98 and WinME don't support services, so shortcuts copied from
an NT machine to one of these platforms might be the culprit.

The log is talking about "ibserver.exe", so at least it is the Firebird 1.0
version of the Guardian (ibguard.exe) that is running...somewhere. The
Firebird 1 Guardian is looking for ibserver.exe in order to start the
service and either 1) ibserver.exe can't be found or 2) a service is
already running that is using the gds_db service port (port 3050 by default).
