Failed to locate host machine

Hi,

I don't know why but after I have installed Apache, Php and Ruby on my
PC, when I try to connect to Firebird database from my VB6 application
the driver return me the error:

[ODBC Firebird Driver]
Unable to complete network request to host "127.0.0.1".
Failed to locate host machine.
Undefined service 3050/tcp.

I'm using FB v2.0.3 and ODBC v2.00.00.144

Where is the mistake?

Thanks in advance.
Daniele.

Try to check for a modified value in
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\services file.

Dear Andrea..

I've added the following line into my services file:

gds_db  3050/tcp  fb  #Firebird

But the problem persist!
Any suggestion?

Thanks in advance!
Daniele.

I'd see if you can get a connection from the command line using the isql
tool. If isql can't connect what error does it give?

Dear Paul,

I've added this line to my services file:

gds_db   3050/tcp   fbserver   #Firebird

Then, if I use this connection string (without specify a port number) it
work:

"DRIVER=Firebird/InterBase(r) driver;UID=MyUser;UID=MyPwd;
DBNAME=127.0.0.1:C:\path\to\my\database\MyDB.fdb"

If I insert the port number:

"DRIVER=Firebird/InterBase(r) driver;UID=MyUser;UID=MyPwd;
DBNAME=127.0.0.1/3050:C:\path\to\my\database\MyDB.fdb"

I receive the "Undefined service 3050/tcp" error.

 From isql I can get a connection correctly also specifying a port!

I don't know why!

Thanks in advance!
Daniele.

Interesting. I would guess that the odbc driver is incorrectly parsing
the URL, but it would be necessary to check the source to verify this.

For the time being you will have to connect without specifying a port
number.

Your string in exactly this?
If so check for password: you have to write PWD and not UID

Bye
Andrea
