What is the exact jdk 7 version from oracle you were trying?
I'm not sure. Unfortunately I've lost access to that machine for now. I'll try to re-create this on another machine. thanks, bryan
Recently, I happened to try using the ClientDriver from Derby 10.8.2.2 under Windows 7 with the latest download of JDK 7 from the Oracle site, and was unable to connect to any server. The client kept reporting the error: Invalid argument: connect When I backed down to JDK 1.6, the problem went away.
