The two language runtimes are required for ANY version of Firebird 1.5, not

the full server installation. Your installer should check for their
presence and only install them if they are not there already....
The two runtimes are not in the FbEmbed kit. If you want to take your
chances with the ones that go out with the full server installation, grab
the .zip kit for the full server and extract them from there.
or...
It is *supposed* to be possible to place those runtimes in the application
directory (where your renamed fbembed.dll is) and let the Firebird library
load them from there. It has never worked for me on either Win2K or Win98,
though.

this file and msvcrt.dll (the MS C runtime) from the Microsoft site, for
the version of Windows that's installed on the server.
