Awesome just to get a response!! And on a Sunday playoff weekend

Hello all, Getting "ibtogo64.dll not found in the path" when trying to run on any computer that does not have Interbase installed. I have been using Advantage local server and would like to move to iblite for testing and small desktop projects. I created a small test project using the sample data. I copied the compiled project and supporting files, including license file and data to a USB drive. Stopped the Interbase service and ran the project fine. Moved the USB drive to a different computer and got the error as soon as project ran. To make sure the running project was using the local DLL, I moved the USB back to the development computer and removed the DLL. Got the error, pasted back everything fine. What am I missing. Things I checked: Made sure DLL's are in same directory as exe Deployment files all checked except reg_ibtogo.txt using reg_iblite.txt reg_iblite.txt is in the license folder Interbase directory in same directory as exe Project is release version I ran the program from USB on laptop that has Interbase installed and service stopped and worked fine. any help would be appreciated, Gary

@emailx45 Success!! The fact that both of our licenses are the same for IBLite is no surprise, especially if you look at the docwiki I linked above. It is part of the install for all Rad Studio editions. FYI you should know that the links you sent above for XE3 do not apply for Rio? and above, in fact if you run the license registration and use the .txt file it will not work. As to licenseManager, I checked again and that screenshot was from the Interbase\bin directory. I had to start over and use your example as a guide. Thanks much. I still am not sure where I went wrong. I think some of it had to do with setting things in the IDE, and also I was using TIBDatabase instead of Firedac. I did not reply back right away, I wanted to see if I could find the problem. The project I redid works perfectly... in 32 .. but still get error cannot find library in 64. Even the test project you uploaded, I copied the redist and license file and same result. I am more than happy to settle for the working 32 bit version. For the most part I program as a hobby and the single user desktop programs I build are for friends and family at, no charge (maybe dinner). So an upgrade from Advantage Database that support stopped in 2015 to Interbase puts a smile on my face. Thanks again Gary

From License.txt included So does this mean that with the included reg_iblite.txt file this is a deployable edition?? 25.9 INTERBASE LITE EDITION Under the InterBase Lite Edition license (“Lite Edition”) included with RAD Studio, Licensee may install the Lite Edition software on any number of mobile and Desktop devices from a single instance of an application built with RAD Studio and running on the same device on which the instance of Lite Edition is executing for use by one concurrent user at any one time. The number of users installing or using the Lite Edition shall be measured as the number of distinct inputs to the multiplexing or connection pooling front end. Licensee may not use multiplexing or connection pooling software or hardware to reduce the number of users directly connected to the Lite Edition software. Licensee's user may not connect to the Lite Edition software via an unrestricted-access Internet application.

@emailx45 I really appreciate the help! It does seem to be a license problem that I don't understand. See here: http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Sydney/en/IBLite_and_IBToGo_Deployment_Licensing especially this: IBLite License All RAD Studio 10.3 Rio editions include a free IBLite license for all platforms as part of the installation. Note: No additional installation or license activation procedures are required. I have a .txt file that works. To make sure I ran the : https://reg.codegear.com/srs6/activation with my Delphi serial# and tried the .txt file from that. I got an error saying not licensed. I don't get that error with the included reg_iblite.txt. Test_Interbase_Lite.zip

True. So with a valid license my problem is the "ibtogo64.dll not found in the path" error. Any ideas?

I posted that as well

@emailx45 From Embarcadero: RAD Studio includes InterBase 2020 ToGo and IBLite editions for embedded application development. Developers can deploy their multi-device applications on Windows (32-bit and 64-bit), macOS (32-bit and 64-bit), iOS (32-bit and 64-bit) or Android (32-bit and 64-bit) devices with an IBLite license, for free. Also, developers using RAD Studio 10.3 Rio Enterprise or Architect editions can deploy their iOS and Android applications with the InterBase ToGo (IBToGo) for Mobile license included. The license I have for Interbase IBLite is a result of the $ I shelled out for my Pro edition. Users that paid for Enterprise or Architect have the same ability with ToGo, so this is the intended use for the license not using a development edition for deployment.

@emailx45 I think it is meant to be a "tease" version. Advantage worked that way for years. It was limited but allowed customers to test drive apps with real data, and even use for a while. Then seamlessly upgrade to client server.

Yes, but iblite is suppose to be free

I have checked all the file locations, and made sure they are correct. The only issue must be the license. I have a reg_iblite.txt that came with my paid 10.4 pro version. I thought that was all that was needed now. The links are XE 3 and XE 5 and they require an Interbase serial #. I think I'll stick with Advantage Database. No license issues just include the dll's with the exe. Thanks for the help
