Good morning all.
I'm new to work with databases.
We are having some issues installing the Firebird 2.1.3 DB on our macs.
We have 4 mac mini with leopard 10.5 and processor intel dual.
i was following the documentation on your site:
http://www.firebirdsql.org/devel/doc/papers/html/paper-fb-macosx.html
but i get stuck at the installation step, i create "as suggested" the folder "temp" in the home directory, unzip the file, double click on the .pkg installer, i then agree to install the DB in the \\\m directory
as suggested by the installer, i get a green light installation successful, no problems so far.
We would like to use the database with Java applications, the problem is that i need the url that points to the database so that i can insert it in the String constant and pass it as parameter to the connect() method in my program.
The problem is that i cannot see anithing installed in my mac with name "firebird" there is no application, not even the Firebird.framework
under in the Frameworks folder, so i dont know where to point that url.
Please do you have some advise?
Thank you
Enrico
