I have seen several environments where there have been Firebird Windows Services running in parallel and a faulty connect string pretty much resulted in using the wrong Firebird server. So, for your case, make sure that no other Firebird server is running, e.g. explicitly stopping them in the Windows services panel, in case you are on Windows.
