Subject RES: [firebird-support] Problems installing FB 1.5
Author Fabrício Fadel Kammer
Thanks Paul,

It was this, I installed the classic server.

I'm not sure, but I understand that the classic server is the good one
to run on small networks and stand alone computers.

My software run on customers with many different configurations:
-stand alone computer, where I have the server and client of firebird
running with my software in one computer;
-very small networks: where I've a not dedicate server with one or two
clients and my software is used in all computers;
-small networks: with dedicated linux server and in the maximum 20
clients.

I think that the classic version is better for me... Am I missed? The
super server will work better on this configurations?

Thank you!

Regards

Fabrício F. Kammer

This sounds like you've chosen Classic Server when installing 1.5.
With Classic/Windows you *must* specify a hostname - even if it's
"only" localhost.

Firebird 1.0 for Windows is Superserver-only. Please install 1.5 again
and choose Superserver. Then you should be able to connect with just a
path. If you prefer Classic, you'll have to live with providing the
hostname every time (at least on Win).
