Hi--

I'll bet this is a simple answer but i can't figure it out for the
life of me

I've got a Delphi 6 IBO FB 1.5 app.

I've been working on it off/on for a while. I'm back on now. For
some reason, now (it's never been like this before) when i launch my
app, it gets to the point in my code where the tIBCOnnection.connect
occurs.

this brings up the FB login Dialog. I input the stuff and "OK".
The app then hangs. single stepping shows it never returns from
the .Connect.

if i "reset app" and try a few more times or (usually after one
execution of IBO Console) it launches fine.

I checked the Firebird.log file and saw:

so, i uninstalled and reinstalled FB and the Tue Mar13 "OK" stuff is
all i get now.

oddly, if i run FBMgrApp, i get a error dialog with "Firebird
registry entries not found, check to see is Firebird is installed"

if i run FBConfigManager i get an error dialog with "Firebird server
is not installed on your computer"

if i run IBOConsole, it allows me to loginto the server and the DB
without a problem. And, like i said, if my app hangs on
the .Connect, if i run IBOConsole 1st, it doesn't.

Any ideas?

thanks
