Hi Pasi, The exception on shutdown is expected, so catching and ignoring it should be fine. For good measure, you may want to check that the SQLException has the expected SQLState (which I don't remember off the top of my head) before ignoring it. You may find the section on shutdown in the developer's guide helpful, see here: http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.5/devguide/tdevdvlp40464.html -- Knut Anders
