EMS works with an InterBase XE7 encrypted database while deploying in a Production Environment.

You need to use a valid EMS license to install it. To obtain a valid EMS license for your production environment, please contact an Embarcadero sales representative at http://www.embarcadero.com/company/contact-us.

Installing the EMS Database for Production

You need to install and register a new instance of InterBase XE7 using a valid EMS license.

  1. Download the InterBase XE7 installer to your local computer. You can access the InterBase XE7 .zip file here .
  2. Extract the .zip file to a new directory and run the install_windows.exe.
  3. Uniquely identify the new instance of InterBase. For example, EMS is a good name.

  8. Special note for InterBase 64-bit Japanese Edition on Windows: After the installation, manually copy ibclient64.dll library from C:\Windows\SysWow64 (or from the installed InterBase bin/ folder) to C:\Windows\System32 folder. This is required for the 64-bit version of EMSDevServer.exe to load the InterBase client library (ibclient64.dll) from the correct Windows system library folder.
  9. Run the EMSDevServer.exe to set up the EMS database.
  10. In the EMS Setup Wizard, specify the named instance of InterBase XE7.
