Thanks for the reply.

What I usually do in all the tests I conducted was:

turn off Firebird server on the SERVER computer
turn off my program on the CLIENT computer
Copy the database to the SERVER with a normal copy from a usb drive.
turn on firebird server on the SERVER computer
Launch my program on the CLIENT computer

during launch I can see a progress bar in my program so I know when the connection is working or not, and when it reaches around 60% I get the error

I'm the only one using the program since I'm setting up the system and in evey moment there is only one CLIENT computer trying to connect to the SERVER with firebird.

So I'm sure there are no other open connections.

Of course the version of firebird server is identical in all the computer to be pricise: v2.1.3.18185.

Thanks for the help, a lot!


my best
