RAD Server works with an InterBase 2020 encrypted database while deploying in a Production Environment.
You need to use a valid RAD Server license to install it. To obtain a valid RAD Server license for your production environment, please contact an Embarcadero sales representative at http://www.embarcadero.com/company/contact-us.
Installing the RAD Server Database for Production
You need to install and register a new instance of InterBase 2020 using a valid RAD Server license.
- Download the InterBase 2020 installer to your local computer. For more information, see InterBase 2020.
- Extract the .zip file to a new directory and run the install_windows.exe.
- Uniquely identify the new instance of InterBase. For example, RAD Server is a good name.
- Change the destination folder of the RAD Server Interbase instance.
- Register the RAD Server instance with a valid RAD Server license.
- Start the RAD Server instance of InterBase 2020 server. To do so, choose Start | Programs | Embarcadero InterBase 2020 | 64-bit instance = RAD Server | InterBase Server Manager.
- Verify that the InterBase server is running, or click the Start button.
- 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) toC:\Windows\System32
folder. This is required for the 64-bit version ofEMSDevServer.exe
to load the InterBase client library (ibclient64.dll) from the correct Windows system library folder. - Run the EMSDevServer.exe to set up the RAD Server database.
- In the RAD Server Setup Wizard, specify the named instance of InterBase 2020.
