Hi, all. I was trying to add information about where database directories are stored for a given Network Server run by adding more information to sysinfo.
As a first step, in NetworkServerImpl, I added the following: retval.put(Property.SYSTEM_HOME_PROPERTY, PropertyUtil.getSystemProperty(Property.SYSTEM_HOME_PROPERTY, "")); The problem is, this *always* prints out the location where I started the network server, even when I start the server with -Dderby.system.home=/tmp. I looked at the code, and if I understand it, PropertyUtil.getSystemProperty() does the following: - Try to get the system property from the VM - If there is a security exception, return null - Try to get the property from derby.properties I have *no* derby.properties file, and I am pretty sure that getting it from the system causes a security exception, so I'm a little confused about what is happening here. On another note, if you start up the network server in 10.3, it starts with a basic security manager, and this causes all sorts of failures when you run sysinfo (see below). Is this really what we want to happen? What's the right way of fixing this? Thanks, David exceptions from derby -jar derbyrun.jar server sysinfo: ------------------ Java Information ------------------ Java Version: 1.5.0_07 Java Vendor: Apple Computer, Inc.
