Here is the console output of when I run the program.
-----------------------
c:\programming\m2_system\Scripts>makedb -d
'127.0.0.1:c:\programming\data\m2_dl_3019.fdb'
Creating database... '127.0.0.1:c:\programming\data\m2_dl_3019.fdb'
exception at 00431BD8:
: CreateDB :
-I/O error during "open" operation for file ""
-database or file exists.
-----------------------
Ah, found the problem. In Windows it seems you mustn't wrap the -d
command line parameter value with quotes. Removing the single quotes
in the above command line fixed the problem. Linux and FreeBSD didn't
mind the quoted string value.
------------------------
c:\programming\m2_system\Scripts>makedb -d
127.0.0.1:c:\programming\data\m2_dl_3019.fdb
Creating database... 127.0.0.1:c:\programming\data\m2_dl_3019.fdb
running... create_firebird.sql
running... views.sql
running... rights.sql
running... defaults.sql
------------------------
I haven't tested what happens if you specify a path under Windows that
contain spaces, but will test it later. I would imagine quotes must be
used, but not sure how yet.
