Some DB's are reported as "is not a valid database", others works well.
All DB's are based on a DB started in 2000 as INTERBASE 6 DB.

With "Firebird-2.1.3.18185_0_Win32.exe" all works fine.

Creating a new DB from a BKP under Firebird-2.1.3.18185_0_x64 works to.

Databases in ODS10 have physical layout targeted at 32-bit platforms only and thus they cannot be read by 64-bit server versions. You have to backup/restore them before using. This is a good advice even for 32-bit server versions, as older database formats are not guaranteed to be supported properly.
