Subject AW: WG: [firebird-support] Firebird 3 encryption in the background

Need to come back to this. I can reproduce the behavior with flamerobin as client.

Connect via the embedded client to a database start encryption, disconnect. I can see that a handle to the database is still opened by flamerobin even if disconnected and I can monitor the encryption progress via “gstat -e”.

When the encryption is ready and no connection to the database is open then the hosting process will crash and burn.

 

Is there a way to stop/start the encryption progress?

 

PS. If you get it twice, Sorry. Reposted as reaction to Helen’s post.

Ok. What does that mean for embedded? The docs describe embedded as neither Super/Superclassic or Classic but as its own 4th model as of FB 3.0.
I closed all connection to the database while encrypting and encrypting was still going on(I assume it was still going on, I just saw still open filehandles to the db file). Do I need to unload the database somehow explicitly?

Encryption is stopped when database unloaded for superserver or at disconnect for classic. Encryption is resumed on any next attach.
