Guys,
 
I have figured out the issue.
 
I uninstalled the Interbase app that was installed with Delphi (I should have deselected that option), cleared any remaining folders, and removed FBCLIENT.DLL and GDS32.DLL from the SysWOW64 directory, then reinstalled FB this time with the "Generate client library as GDS32.DLL for legacy app support?" selected.  The GDS32.DLL is required to use the Interbase components in Delphi.
 
All is well now and thought I should let others know what I had to do.
 
Mike

Subject: [firebird-support] Connection rejected by remote interface

 



Greetings All,
 
Setting up a new Windows 7 computer and installed Delphi XE5 and Firebird 1.5.6
 
I am able to open and compile my Delphi source just fine.
 
When I try to connect to the database using the TIBDatabase component I receive the "connection rejected by remote interface" error
 
FBCLIENT.DLL is in the Windows\SysWOW64 folder, so is GDS32.DLL
 
I thought if I remove the GDS32.DLL then it would find the FBCLIENT.DLL and use it, bad idea as Delphi complains that it is missing when you try to open the source and then will proptly delete the TIBDatabase component.
 
Delphi XE5 and Firebird 1.5.3 worked just fine with the TIBQuery, TIBDatabase, and TIBTransaction on Windows XP
 
I'm stuck, any ideas what I need to do to fix this?
 
Mike
