Hi,
I have derby database in a jar file. I access it using
jdbc:derby:jar:(C:/SampleDatabases/database.jar)dbname
and it works fine. But when I put my database.jar in a http location
and try to access it is not working.
I tried something like
jdbc:derby:jar:(http://intranet/somedir/SampleDatabases/database.jar)dbname
and it does not work. Does anyone have any idea on what is the cause
of the problem?
Derby supports a full or relative path to that jar file, but it must be
a file system path on the local machine where the JVM is running. The
http syntax you tried is not supported (does anyone happen to know if
this support has ever been requested?).

Are you trying to obtain remote access to a database? The network server
provides remote access to a database. Also, you can access remote
databases via a web server.
