All,
In a number of different Firebird 1.5.3 databases, on different hosts, I've recently noticed that all RDB$DESCRIPTION values in RDB$RELATIONS and RDB$RELATION_FIELDS tables have been lost. As an experiment, I updated those system tables directly for one database, and could query the new values, so it is not an issue of being unable to view data in those BLOB fields; they were null before the update.
Is there anything that might cause that loss of data in Firebird 1.5.3 databases that are otherwise functioning normally? Thanks for any insights.
Bart
