Subject Non-privileged Embedded usage
Author Stefan Heymann
A question concerning Firebird Embedded Server on Windows (escpecially
the newer Windows versions where users are advised to work as
non-Admins):

Let's say I install my application in a sub-folder of "Program Files"
and I do this as an Administrator. fbembed.dll is then located in this
Program folder. Normal (unprivileged) users do not have write
permissions on that folder by default.

What happens when the Embedded server tries to create files like the
.log, .lck or .mon files? Will it (try to) create these in the program
folder? Will that fail? If so, what can I do?


Regards

Stefan
