Have had this error with different databases. I will start the database and get firebird_sdbc error: *Use of database at location /tmp/lu3502i6bvpe.tmp/lu3502i6bvpo.tmp/firebird.fdb is not allowed by server configuration *failed to create database /tmp/lu3502i6bvpe.tmp/lu3502i6bvpo.tmp/firebird.fdb *unknown ISC error 336330835 caused by 'isc_service_query' There is no possibility to contact to the database, but the path is allowed for writing for me. Then I close LO, rename the database and start LO again. Now I get connection to the database. I close this, rename it to the old name and could connect also. I don't know how to reproduce this behavior. I have had a look to the folder, which isn't protected. I have had a look to my Firebird-server, which I hadn't started and which isn't running. All this happens under LO 6.4.4.2 on OpenSUSE 15.1 64bit rpm Linux.
@Robert : Which version of Firebird server were you running that was used to create the fdb file in the first place ? Just so that I can see whether I can attempt to reproduce this. I take it that you don't get this problem when trying to access a standalone FDB file ? I'm not sure I'll be able to try and reproduce this, given how restrictive reading/writing outside of the allowed disk areas is on macOS, but I'll try and take a look.

Just so that I can see whether I can > attempt to reproduce this. I have created the Firebird-database by using the migration wizard. It appears with different internal Firebird databases here - also databases other people send to me. > > I take it that you don't get this problem when trying to access a standalone > FDB file ? No, it's the internal Firebird-database, which I can't connect to at this moment. ... and the Firebird-server isn't running. Renaming the database after closing LO will solve the problem. Then renaming to the original name will also work.
@Robert : thanks for the update. Unfortunately, I am getting a different error when trying to access the default employee database provided with current Firebird release on macOS: firebird_sdbc error: *unsupported on-disk structure for file /Library/Frameworks/firebird.framework/Versions/A/Resources/examples/empbuild/employee.fdb; found 12.2, support 12.0 caused by 'isc_attach_database' will file a separate report.
Hello Robert, Is this issue still reproducible with LibreOffice 7.0.0.3 ?
(In reply to Xisco Faulí from comment #4) > Hello Robert, > Is this issue still reproducible with LibreOffice 7.0.0.3 ? I haven't had the same behavior again - with LO 6.4.4.2 on the same machine. Also couldn't reproduce with LO 7.0.0.3. Will close this bug as Worksforme and reopen it, if I could reproduce the behavior.
