Problem: when connecting to a database or creating a database from a windows client to NT or 95 server, getting error "I/O error: cannot locate file or directory". Solution: Here are some possible causes of this error: 1) It's a common error to mistype the file or directory name. Double check the file or directory name. 2) Check and see if you are using mapped drive. InterBase doesn't support mapped drive under 32-bit environment. If so, use local physical drive on the server for the database line when making the connection. For example, you have a mapped drive "m:" to the server on directory c:test. The database resides on the server on directory c:test. When making the database connection from the client, you cannot use "m:" on the database line, you must use "c:test".
