Thanks Mark. The following are the connect strings on that are passed for conenctivity:

If the app is installed as a node:
Driver=Firebird/InterBase(r) driver;Uid=SYSDBA;Pwd=masterkey;DbName=servername:fdbaliasname;

If the app is installed as a server:
Driver=Firebird/InterBase(r) driver;Uid=SYSDBA;Pwd=masterkey;DbName=C:\ProgramData\appfoldername\datafoldername\databasename.fdb;

The issue is the same for both the above string. These same strings work on the XP Machine though

The database files are physically present I have confirmed that.

Please advise.

Thanks and regards
