Backup: Cannot attach to service manager

[fschulze]

I miss an exaple for use of IBCBackupService. So I try by myself:

Code: Select all

 IBCBackupService1.LoginPrompt := False;//show no Login window
 IBCBackupService1.Username := 'sysdba';
 IBCBackupService1.Password := 'masterkey';
 IBCBackupService1.Database := 'localhost:c:\dbs\mydb.gdb';
 IBCBackupService1.BackupFile.Text := 'c:\dbs\mydb.gbk';
 IBCBackupService1.Attach;//connect to DB
 IBCBackupService1.ServiceStart;//run backup

On Attach command I get an exception: "Cannot attach to service manager."

What's wrong?
Is there a detailed describtion how to backup and restore?

(I use Delphi 2010 on Windows Vista Ultimate 64 SP2 and Firebird 2.0)

Code: Select all

 IBCBackupService1.ClientLibrary := 'gds32.dll';//with Path, if not in Windows\system32
 IBCBackupService1.Protocol := TCP;//for const TCP include Unit IBC
 IBCBackupService1.LoginPrompt := False;//show no Login window
 IBCBackupService1.Username := 'sysdba';
 IBCBackupService1.Password := 'masterkey';
 IBCBackupService1.Server := 'localhost';
 IBCBackupService1.Database := 'c:\dbs\mydb.gdb';//local server view
 IBCBackupService1.BackupFile.Text := 'c:\dbs\mydb.gbk';
 IBCBackupService1.Attach;//connect to DB
 IBCBackupService1.ServiceStart;//run backup
