----------------------------------------

One case I can think of  database disk is full and system is unable to create 
even a lock (db.lck) file also.  In derby , there is this logic that declares 
database is read only , when it is not able to create files. Idea is  to boot  
database in jar files ..etc in read only mode . If   file creation IO error 
happens to occur , before it load the log factory is loaded , then it  boots 
the read only verion of the log factory implementation, thinking that databse 
is read only. 

you may want to look at the following code to see , if this is what is 
happening in u'r case:
BaseDataFileFatory.java:

1)
private void bootLogFactory(boolean create, Properties startParams) throws 
StandardException {
if (isReadOnly())
startParams.put(LogFactory.RUNTIME_ATTRIBUTES, LogFactory.RT_READONLY);
logFactory = (LogFactory)       Monitor.bootServiceModule(create, this, 
                                        rawStoreFactory.getLogFactoryModule(), 
                                                startParams);
}


2) boot()  method 

3) ,private void privGetJBMSLockOnDB() throws StandardException this method 
marks the database as readonly , if it is not able to create db.lck files.

Marking database on disk full case seems to be incorrect as u mentioned. 
Problem here is ,we want to automatically figure out the read only databases,  
but java does not  seem have a  DiskFull exception!!  


Thanks

>      Project: Derby
>         Type: Bug
>   Components: Store
>     Versions: 10.2.0.0
>  Environment: Sun Sparc Solaris, 1.4 JDK, Derby Client/Server
>     Reporter: Øystein Grøvlen
>     Assignee: Øystein Grøvlen
>     Priority: Critical

>
> 1. Inserted data into the database until the disk was full. (5 clients 
> inserting into 5 different tables in parallel.)
> 2. Shut down the server
> 3. Start the database again without freeing any disk space.
> When I try to start the database again, I get Null-pointer-exception, 
> regardless of how I connect (have tried embedded, client server, ij, jdbc 
> applications).  I have not tried to free some space on the disk before 
> starting.  
> The call stack is not available right now (the computer I used had to be shut 
> down due to problems with our cooling system), but the exception comes from 
> the following line in RawStore.java:
>      properties.put(Attribute.LOG_DEVICE, logFactory.getCanonicalLogPath());
> getCanonicalLogPath() returns null which results in a NPE in the hash table.
> A quick debug before the computer was stopped, showed that the logFactory was 
> an instance of org.apache.derby.impl.store.raw.log.ReadOnly which always 
> returns null in its  getCanonicalLogPath().
> I suspect this may be related to the fact that I ran with the log in a 
> non-default location.
