[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-2136?page=all ]
Rajesh Kartha updated DERBY-2136: --------------------------------- If the DERBY_OPTS has been set with -Dderby.system.home correctly, the Network Server will for sure use that as the Derby system home. Did you try creating databases by connecting to the server ? I am sure you will find them in the /data/derby directory, in your case. Currently the sysinfo utility, in both cases (embedded and NetworkServer), does not print the derby.system.home information, hence I think what you noticed is expected. However, I do agree with you it will be really useful for the sysinfo to print the derby.system.home info out, specially when there are multiple instances of server running on a machine and one wants to verify if the derby.system.home is kept separate from each other. > Can't set system directory with derby.system.home for Network Server > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-2136 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-2136 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Documentation, Network Server > Reporter: Frederik > Priority: Minor > > I'm a total newcomer to Derby. Decided to play with it today after reading > http://www.regdeveloper.co.uk/2006/11/08/java_database_derby > I want to use the Network Server deployment mode. For determining the System > Directory (which holds properties file and the database directories, etc), I > understood from docs (e.g. > http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.2/devguide/cdevdvlp27610.html) that I > should set derby.system.home. > I tried (using the newer scripts in $DERBY_HOME/bin) > export DERBY_OPTS=-Dderby.system.home=/data/derby > startNetworkServer > but that failed to set the system directory properly (as witnessed by > "NetworkServerControl sysinfo"). It was using current directory when starting > derby. > I finally discovered that it works if I do > export DERBY_OPTS=-Duser.dir=/data/derby > startNetworkServer > That seems to be either a bug or a docbug to me. > (Almost all docs are using the scripts in > $DERBY_HOME/frameworks/NetworkServer/bin instead of the newer ones in ./bin ; > except for http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.2/getstart/ and the mention in > 10.2 release notes) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
