Had a webserver crash yesterday and had to reinstall system (Ubuntu)..99% of the data/application restores were just fine as I use mysql and have proper backups, however also have 2 firebird databases which were unfortunatelly not backuped using gbak and I have only the fdb files available.

Is there any way to restore Firebird database (or mine data into sql scripts etc..) just from the fdb files?

The problem is a big pain and quite urgent, so thanks for any suggestions (gfix etc does not work..all attempts to connect or do anything return "is not a valid database" error..).

+3  A: 

fdb is the database file : so you don't have to restore it.
