Trouble opening Firebird embedded database

Hello,

I am trying to open a Firebird 2.1 embedded database using the TIBCConnection component. I get the error: unsupported on-disk structure for file Ecclm.fdb; found 11.1, support 11.0.

Can I use the IBDAC components for an embedded Firebird 2.1 database? Currently my components are in Trial mode. I'm trying to determine if I should buy them.

BTW, the components seem to work well using Firebird 2.1 as a server. The trouble I'm having is with the embedded.

Thanks in advance.

Trouble with Firebird embedded

I didn't give enough information in my previous post.

I have IDAC 2.50.0.35 and am using Delphi 2007.

The Firebird is version 2.1

Thanks

Probably you are using Firebird 2.0 embedded server. It does not support Firebird 2.1 databases.

do you mean embedded 2.1 is not supported (yet) ?
only 2.0 ?

if 2.1 is not supported ... when do you plan to support it ?

thx

IBDAC supports Firebird 2.1 embedded server. But you cannot use 2.0 embedded server with 2.1 database.
