These demos use BDE (Borland Database Engine)
BDE is obsolete and is not supported by new versions of Delphi.

If you use a recent versions of Delphi, it's better to use demos not from "Delphi", but from "DelphiUnicode" folder.
Specifically, with FireDAC_IB extension in directory names.
These demos use FireDAC components, and InterBase tables (InterBase server must be running)

One thing to check, if the running server and the connection has the same port.
If port is not specified in connection parameters, it is taken from the environment variable IB_PROTOCOL.
When Delphi is running, it may apply additional environment variables.
You can check them in Tools | Options, page IDE | Environment variables.
For example, it may define IB_PROTOCOL = developer_ib2020.
When you run IterBase Server Manager, check its caption. It should contain the same string in [], like [developer_ib2020].
