Database Setup

This three-step instruction guides to setup the test database on a Win95/NT for TC applications using the Interbase database which is a part of the JBuilder Professional distribution.

1. Create the database
   1. Launch the Interbase Windows ISQL.
   2. Run the SQL scripts ...\tc\db\createdb.sql and ...\tc\db\filldb.sql. These should create the database ...\tc\db\tc.gdb.
2. Setup the database driver
   1. Launch the 32bit ODBC application (from the Control Panel in Win95).
   2. Create a new data source called "TC" by
      • pushing "Add..." and selecting the InterBase driver,
      • configuring the data source to the created database ...\tc\database\tc.gdb, and
      • providing SYSDBA as the username and masterkey as the password (note the case).
   3. Test the connection (for some reason this may require for you to go out of the dialog and then open it again).
3. Start the Interbase Server
   1. Launch the Interbase Server.
   2. The Interbase Server icon should emerge on the task bar.
