Question:
Why am I getting the error "database unavailable" when connecting to Interbase via IIS?
Answer:
Go into the services window on the machine your apps are running on and make sure that all services such as Interbase server, IIS Admin and web Publishing and Interbase Server have the "Allow service to interact with desktop" option checked. This is accessed by right clicking the service and going to properties | Log On.
Note: This may not be the same as "Unavailable Database" which is generally caused by not having your Interbase server running.
