Hi,
At a client site I have had an application accessing a firebird database on their server (both workstation and server are 32bit) without any problems. They have now added a workstation with a 64bit operating system and can't seem to be able to access the database from it. Have installed 64bit Firebird (Ver 2.1) on that workstation. The more I Google information about this situation the more I get confused because of contradicting advice and incomplete answers. Can someone please explain (in simple steps) what needs to be installed and/or configured to make a 32 bit application on a 64bit machine access a firebird database on a 32bit machine.
Thanks in advance
Bill
