Hello

I have a strange behavior. In my windows-service application i try to open a database connection, but i some cases it fails.

The file are installed on Windows 10 on a notebook. When the computer boots with a network connection and Internet are on. My program works without any problems. But when the computer are booting an the network are not connected, the windows-service starts and trys to connect to the database, but it wil fails with a exception.

For test purposion, i istalled the EMS-Manager to connect also to the database file, this will works without any problems!

So EMS-Manager can connect, my service-apps can not connect when the notebook are started without a network pluged in.

I developed my service-app with Delphi 10.3.1 and FireDAC. The database are Firebird 3.0.4

the catched exception are
