Hello All,

 

The security3.fdb on my system is stored under %allusersprofile%\Firebird.

%allusersprofile% is a Windows variable and leads to C:\ProgramData by default but can also be a different location.

In the firebird.conf I tried to adjust the line

#SecurityDatabase = $(dir_secDb)/security3.fdb

but it seems that I cannot use %allusersprofile% as path.

 

Does anyone know how to use Windows environment variables in the firebird.conf?

 

Thanks for your help.

 

Best regards
