Installing the Firebird Database Server on CentOS 7
-
@scottalanmiller sorry, where can I check firebird logs?
-
I've build a new server and just did an install. Definitely looks like things have changed recently. I'm getting the same issues.
-
@scottalanmiller it is good to hear that, I thought I was wrong. Now, please look at the log file: it says Can't access lock files's directory /tmp/firebird/
It seems firebird user has no access to that folder.
Let me test something, allowing firebird user to access it.

Solved:
sudo chown -R firebird:firebird /tmp/firebirdThank you very much for your help and guide.

Oh awesome, glad that it was not anything crazy. I'll add that to the install instructions up top. That was definitely not needed previously.

@black3dynamite, do you need some specific help? I mean, I do web apps that works with firebird.

No. I was just curious about it.

chown -R firebird:firebird /tmp/firebird
This command doesnt work.
Because there is no "firebird" directory in /tmp folder -
This is a three year old tutorial. The Firebird here, the OS are both out of date. And the package listed no longer works. For a current install, used Firebird 3 on either CentOS 8 or Fedora.
