I have the same issue as in
this GitHub one. I see it is closed as 'wontfix', but what I don't understand is why should ISQL even try to open a security database when it is working in embedded mode. After all, a security database may not be pesent at all on the system. and we only want to extract the metadata of a database file to which we have all necessary access.
Could it be somehow fixed, or at least the error messages replaced by a warning that the information, expected to come from the security database, will be unavailable?
