Hi
You should specify the port when create connection string. Default port for
Firebird is 3050.
Syntax looks like servername:port:/path/to/database

Subject: [firebird-support] gd2_db conflict on services file

Anco Header StationeryHi all

I have 2 firebird servers running
172.19.0.2 - local
172.19.0.4 - remote

I have applications that connect to either server with no problem

After installing Apache and PHP the following line was added to services
gds_db 3060/tcp as per the installation script

This works fine for developing my web pages and access to Firebird is fine
on Apache/PHP however
when I try my exe apps, "No connection could be made because the target
machine actively refused it" is displayed.

Commenting out the gds_db line in services solves the problem for my exe's
but then my web pages get
"Could not connect: Unable to complete network request to host "localhost".
Failed to establish a connection. No connection could be made because the
target machine actively refused it. "

Has anyone else come across this problem or am I missing the obvious

Regards
Cao
