How do you do the connection to firebird database? I mean, are you
doing "server:/path/to/file.fbd" or "/path/to/file.fbd"?

With first string is the firebird user who make the connection, with
the second is the user who login on the server who tries to make the
connection and also that tries to create the file.

Try "localhost:/path/to/file.fbd"
