I need to export data from Firebird to a CSV file. When I used Google, I found the FBExport tool. I need to install this tool on my CentOS 6 machine. I am using CentOS Server. How do I install FBExport in my terminal? Is there any proper documentation for this?
I’m using CentOS 6.
I have unzipped the file and after that I couldn’t find any installation file. I am a Linux beginner please help me.
After unzipped the file , i tried to run the fbexport file, but the result is ‘command not found’.

Create a folder in your terminal and execute the below code
open Fbexport folder and execute the below command
If you face any error like g++ command not found then run the below command
Again execute the command
make all
, if you face any error like cannot find - lfbclient then do the following commandsExecute
make all
command.You can use the Makefile to install. If you have
make
installed, you can use:Alternatively, you should ensure that the
exe/fbexport
file is executable and run that.That said, it was compiled in 2009, so possible it will not run as-is, and you may need to compile from source yourself. That means installing GCC in addition to make. You’ll also need to have the Firebird client libraries installed. Then use:
NOTE: I haven’t actually followed these steps myself, and I don’t know if the code is still compilable on recent compiler versions.
