Firebird 2.5 CHARACTER SET WIN1252 is not installed

I've installed Firebird-Server 2.5 on FreeBsd 9.1 using:

pkg install firebird-server-2.5.2_1

It's working ok, since I can connect using FlameRobin from an external PC.

Now, when I try to restore a database using gbak, I got this:

...
gbak: ERROR:    CHARACTER SET WIN1252 is not installed
gbak:Exiting before completion due to errors

Should I install something more server side?. The database was created on a Windows machine, that's why its character set is WIN1252.

EDIT: after some trouble I deinstalled firebird and reinstalled WITHOUT USING SUDO.

Now I can connect using isql-fb and do "show system collation;". Here's the result:

...

...but using gbak I still get the same error.

You have no access to intl subfolder. Few reasons:

You dont have right to access it ( mostly on linux/unix OS )
using embedded fbembed.dll without copy of intl subfolder
something wrong with your path, and Firebird fails to find intl subfolder

Most of these causes can be fixed by simple reinstalling server. If it's embedded , then you only need to copy intl folder , where fbembed.dll exists

Seems that was an issue with ICU with new port update it should be fixed

In my case, my firebird-super-server was working fine, until I have upgraded packages in my CentOS 7. Then I get an error mentioned below.
