Hello,

now, the switches works fine, I had forget the Charset -fix_fss_d ISO8859_1

It works fine, but there is another problem to fix. Now I get the error,
that value exceeds the range for valid timestamps. How can I fix this issue?

I have installed fb as cs without superclassic under 32 Bit Win7 the 32 Bit
Version

I guess you can imagine that you first need to do that before backing up and
restoring?

* What is the character set of your database used when you have created the
database in the past?
* What is the exact error message?
* How did you install Firebird 2.5?

Is there another way to migrate? With the scripts while

backup/restore via gbak is the preferred solution, because it also moves
data. Of course, you still can create an empty Firebird 2.5 based database
with a DDL script and then pump your data with a tool from your source into
the destination database.
