Subject Firebird 3.0.4: problem connecting to test DB
Author IPHost Support
Hello,

Firebird 3.0.4 (32-bit) installed on Windows 10 (64-bit) as application,
with legacy user support.

I encountered strange problems at the very beginning. The below is all
run in elevated cmd.exe:

First, I create a test database:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Firebird\Firebird_3_0>isql
Use CONNECT or CREATE DATABASE to specify a database
SQL> CREATE DATABASE 'C:\Firebird\test.fdb';
SQL> COMMIT;
SQL> QUIT;

Next, I try to connect to it:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Firebird\Firebird_3_0>isql
SQL> CONNECT 'localhost/3050:C:\Firebird\test.fdb' user 'SYSDBA'
password 'xxXXXXxx';
Statement failed, SQLSTATE = 08006
Error occurred during login, please check server firebird.log for details

where 'xxXXXXxx' stands for SYSDBA password I created during installation.

Problems:

1. I can't locate firebird.log file, nor I see obvious means to specify
its location.

2. Why I cannot connect to the database I have just created?

I would appreciate any response.

Sincerely,
Konstantin
