[Firebird-net-provider] Interbase 4.0 Compatiblity

[Andrew G. <And...@Bu...>]

Hi,

My development machine is Win XP, Firebird 1.03, .net 1.1, FBNetProv
1.1.  The production box is Win 2k Server, Interbase 4.0 (sic), .net
1.1, FBNetProv 1.1.  The ASP.NET project works great on the development
box.

But when I try to run it on production (IB 4.0), I get

GDSException: Exception of type FirebirdSql.Data.INGDS.GDSException was
thrown
...
FbException: connection rejected by remote interface

trying to open an FbConnection.  The connect string is

    public connStr As String = "User=xxx; Password=xxx;" & _
      "Database=C:\\db\\xxx.gdb;" & _
 
"Server=localhost;Port=3050;Dialect=1;Charset=NONE;Role=;Connection" & _
      "lifetime=15;Pooling=true;Packet Size=8192"

I can connect to IB 4.0 db's via ISAPI DLL's using http on the same web
site.

Does firebird-net-provider work with IB 4.0?  If not, any suggestions
what I might try to connect to the db via asp.net?  Unfortunately,
upgrading from IB 4.0 is not an option.

Thanks,

Andy

Huumm at this moment no for connection to the firebird server the 
provider is sending PROTOCOL_VERSION10 as protocol version i can suggest 
you to modify this by the protocol version used by Interbase 4, in 
GDS.CS line 2150, recompile the provider sources ( using NAnt 
nant.sourceforge.net) and try it, with your app or using the NUnit test 
suite, and if you can please comment here the results of your test :).

Thanks for the feedback.  Asp.net is enough new technology for me right
now.  After much thought, I decided to upgrade production box to
Firebird anyway, and now my site is up and running.

Great !! I think it's the best option because Interbase 4.0 is an old 
product :)
