I doubt very much that you can set a umask for the firebird server.

Just add a like to your makefile that chmod's the database file...

Subject: [firebird-support] Re: db file access right


Hi,

In fact, we are using isql within a Makefile to create a database
('make db') during the developpment process. The new database is just
a 'defaut' database, and I want to allow non-root user to be able copy
the database (which is absolutely not used, but needs to be readable
for everybody).

How could I set up Firebird so that the permission of the created db
is 0644?

Best regards,
Fabrice
