Not quite. Derby aka JavaDB is _bundled_ with the JDK (not the JRE). And you still need to include the Derby jars in your classpath, it will not happen automatically. Older versions of Java 6 have the derby jars in db/lib: $ \ls /usr/local/java/jdk1.6.0_00/db/lib/ derby.jar derbyLocale_fr.jar derbyLocale_zh_CN.jar derby.war derbyLocale_it.jar derbyLocale_zh_TW.jar derbyclient.jar derbyLocale_ja_JP.jar derbynet.jar derbyLocale_de_DE.jar derbyLocale_ko_KR.jar derbyrun.jar derbyLocale_es.jar derbyLocale_pt_BR.jar derbytools.jar Unfortunately, due to a glitch, the derby jars are missing from Java 6 update 2 :( This will be fixed in the next update, but until then you need to download derby from apache... -- dt
