    using Cloudscape/Derby as Datasource

      Hello!

      I want to use Cloudscape/Derby as a Datasource for my ejbs and jms.
      can any one can explain me how to configure the xml files to work with Cloudscape/Derby?


      Thank you,
      Netanel

          Looking for same information.

           

          I have troubles with Derby JDBC Urls.

           

          In some tools the Derby database path in system must be spesified in jdbc url for ex.

           

             jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/C:\Programs\Java\db-derby-10.5.3.0-bin\CustomerDB

           

          Currently I have a problem with JBoss AS 6 Final Derby datasource definitions.

           

          The exception below "java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.jboss.jdbc.DerbyDatabase"

          claims that driver class is not found although I have put the derby jars to server lib directory

          ( derby.jar, derbyclient.jar, derby-plugin.jar )

            Hello,

             

            This problem is solved in my case.

             

            The Derby was in separate process (JVM) so in seam-gen databse driver

            must be given as 'org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver' and

            hibernate.connection.dataSource_class=org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDataSource

             

            Now the application works with other tables but not with table Component, because it is reserved for Seam, JSF ?
            The name of this table must be changed.

            Good articles relatde to JBoss Derby configurations are

            Remember this EmbeddedDriver vs. ClientDriver matter.   ( See from Derby docs)
