ODBC Driver for FireBird. Error:"Cannot load client library: <path libs>

This error may indicate that the driver cannot locate the specified Client Library or that the library's bitness does not match the DSN's bitness.

The InterBase client library is distributed with FireBird. Additionally, the library's bitness must match the application's bitness. 

To resolve this issue, install the FireBird client library and specify its path in the DSN settings, following the instructions provided at the following link: 


Ensure that the required client library is available for the FireBird server version in use.  

Info
Questions regarding obtaining the client library are not related to the functionality of this driver.
