Yes I did something very similar, I copied the particular lines of your jsp, 
into my own. The results are shown in the hardcopy I put the the mail 
yesterday. And from my point of view it looks very reasonable, or can you see 
something strange there?
I guess I also will try out the The DB-prcedure as workaround Rick was sending, 
as soon I got the time.

Do I get it right, that the threads defined in Network server of derby should 
correspond with amount of connections in defined data source for derby in the 
Application Server, where it is running in? Is there any best practice?

That looks reasonable.

It would be very difficult to figure out exactly what actually happened between 
yesterday and today from a few sketchy details.  It probably doesn't matter 
much at this point.

Did you try invoking test.jsp from my last post?  That would tell you if the 
running instance of Tomcat had a JAVA_OPTS and derby.system.home passed through 
to it.

See

Lastly, let me point out that there is absolutely NO requirement to run the 
Derby war in order to use Derby from a web application.  You could just as 
easily run the Derby Network Server in a separate process or use an embedded 
Derby engine.  Just wanted to point that out so you and others aware of the 
possibilities.
