I cannot find any info on doing a manual install to upgrade to the latest snapshot of FB3 on Windows.

Does anyone know if any guide exists (maybe from before the windows installer was introduced)

Thanks
Tony

 

Hi,

 

as Dmitry say problems can be already solved in snapshot build

e.g. http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-5307 can be same as your problems –

use napshot build from

http://www.firebirdsql.org/en/snapshot-builds/

 

regards,

It's worth trying a v3.0.1 snapshot before considering downgrade. It may
have these issue fixed already.
