I don't know what I did, but I managed to break the localhost
connection. I am using FB1.52 and the localhost connection was fine
until one day I could no longer connect to the local host in
IBOCONSOLE. The error message that i get is:

Cannot attach to services manager.

Of course I worked around it by using a TCP/IP connection and using
127.0.0.1 as the IP address. It would be nice to find out what I
broke and how to fix it.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling FB but that did not help at all.



Thank you for any help
