- Derby databases created from Geronimo's web-based Manager Console ("DB Manager" on the left-menu item) are stored in the {geronimo install}/var/derby directory. To access a derby database instance from external applications (e.g., Derby's ij query tool), use the standard network-client URL form (replacing the server name and database path as appropriate):
| No Format |
|---|
(Linux) connect 'jdbc:derby://localhost:1527//usr/myapps/geronimo-1.1.1/var/derby/MyTestDB;'; |
...
(Windows) connect 'jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/c:\ |
...
myDerbyDBs\ |
...
MyTestDB;'; |
If your database requires a username/password, append a string similar to "'user=myuser;password=mypass';" to the above.
- As explained in the link below, for installing web applications using the Derby database, it is recommended for web applications using a pre-configured Derby database to use an EAR file, with the database compressed into a JAR file and kept separate from the WAR file. Next, using a Geronimo bean, the JAR file can be uncompressed and installed into the geronimo/var/derby directory (the usual location for embedded databases).
