I created a firebird database on my windows PC. It was originally
created w/version 1.5. It worked fine when I upgraded to v2 on
windows. I installed firebird v2.0.1 on my mac, copied the database
over and it doesn't work. When I try to connect, I get an error
message reading "*.fdb is not a valid database". So there are 2
questions: 1) Should a database created on a windows box work if
copied to some other platform, like Mac or Linux. 2) Does it matter
that the database was originally created w/v1.5 and now I'm trying to
use it w/2.0.1 on different platform?
