Known installation problems
|
||||
---------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
o It is not possible to use the binary installer
|
||||
to install more than one instance of Firebird 2.1.
|
||||
o It is only possible to use the binary installer
|
||||
to install the default instance of Firebird 2.1. If
|
||||
you wish to install additional, named instances you
|
||||
should manually install them with the zipped install
|
||||
image.
|
||||
|
||||
o Unfortunately, (at the time of Beta 2) the installer
|
||||
cannot detect if other versions of Firebird are
|
||||
running.
|
||||
cannot detect if a previous version of Firebird
|
||||
Classic server are running.
|
||||
|
||||
o There are known areas of overlap between the
|
||||
32-bit and 64-bit installs:
|
||||
|
||||
- The Control Panel | Add or Remove Programs section
|
||||
does not indicate whether the installed version
|
||||
is 32-bit or 64-bit.
|
||||
does not indicate that an installed 32-bit version
|
||||
is 32-bit. However, an installed 64-bit version is
|
||||
clearly marked.
|
||||
|
||||
- The service installer (instsvc) uses the same
|
||||
instance name.
|
||||
instance name for 32-bit and 64-bit installed. This
|
||||
is by design. If an attempt is made to install (for
|
||||
example) the 32-bit version and the 64-bit version
|
||||
simultaneously using the default instance name
|
||||
instsvc will see the location of the first version
|
||||
to be installed and continue to use it. This means
|
||||
that it will restart the original service at the
|
||||
end of installation.
|
||||
|
||||
- If the 32-bit and 64-bit control panel applets are
|
||||
installed they will both point to the same default
|
||||
instance.
