Sorry. I need SQL scripts. I can't make sense of a compiled application
with no source code.

Hi Rick,
Here is a working Java example for you. It’s fully self-contained with its own
JRE so all you need do is download it and run it. This bin distribution is for
Windows, so sorry if you’re on another platform. It’s too big for email, so I
have it on my OneDrive

First, download, unzip, then run /bin/start-resiste.bat. You’ll see the
following:

Next, m move the /data directory to a different location and then update
/conf/db.properties.

Next, run /bin/start-resiste.bat again. You’ll see the following error:

Next, update /bin/start-resiste.bat to make sure derby.system.home is in sync
with the new location of the database:

Next, run /bin/start-resiste.bat again. You’ll see it’s now successful with
/conf/db.properties and /bin/start-resiste.bat in sync

Now here is a big Caveat. I discovered this while getting this demo together. I
have Derby 10.14.2.0 installed on my computer. For my first attempt at this
demo, I created the database from scratch using 10.14.2.0. When I did this, I
DID NOT experience the connection error as described above. However, when I use
my original database, I DO experience the error as demonstrated above.
Unfortunately, I do not remember which version of Derby I used to create the
original database, but obviously it was an older version. So perhaps this has
something to do with an older database version?

Hi Michael,
I must be missing something in your description of the problem, because I
cannot reproduce it. I have created the following scripts in order to reproduce
the behavior of both changing the value of derby.system.home and moving the
database to another directory:
First SQL script nativeTest.sql:
CONNECT 'jdbc:derby:/Users/rhillegas/derby/mainline/z/db1;create=true;user=dbo';
CALL syscs_util.syscs_create_user( 'DBO', 'dbo_password' );
-- shutdown in order to enable NATIVE authentication
CONNECT 'jdbc:derby:/Users/rhillegas/derby/mainline/z/db1;shutdown=true';
CONNECT
'jdbc:derby:/Users/rhillegas/derby/mainline/z/db1;user=dbo;password=dbo_password';
VALUES SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_GET_DATABASE_PROPERTY('derby.authentication.provider');
CREATE TABLE t(a INT);
INSERT INTO t VALUES (1), (2);
Second SQL script nativeTest2.sql:
CONNECT
'jdbc:derby:/Users/rhillegas/derby/mainline/zz/db1;user=dbo;password=dbo_password';
SELECT * FROM t;
Then a shell script (z1) to run nativeTest.sql, move the database to another
directory, then run nativeTest2.sql:
#! /bin/bash
#
# Run a derby test
rm -rf z/db1
rm -rf zz/db1
rm zzz/*
rm zzzz/*
. setupClasspath
java -cp $CLASSPATH -Dderby.system.home=/Users/rhillegas/derby/mainline/zzz
-Dderby.language.logStatementText=true -Dderby.stream.error.logSeverityLevel=0
org.apache.derby.tools.ij $MAC_HOME/sql/nativeTest.sql
mv z/db1 zz/
java -cp $CLASSPATH -Dderby.system.home=/Users/rhillegas/derby/mainline/zzzz
-Dderby.language.logStatementText=true -Dderby.stream.error.logSeverityLevel=0
org.apache.derby.tools.ij $MAC_HOME/sql/nativeTest2.sql
When I run z1, I get the following output:
ij version 10.16
ij> CONNECT

ij> CALL syscs_util.syscs_create_user( 'DBO', 'dbo_password' );

Can you post a similar set of scripts which demonstrate the problem you are
seeing?
Thanks,

NATIVE.
After creating the database I, I set the 'sa' user like this:
ij> CALL SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_CREATE_USER('sa', 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx');
Then I create the application user like this:
CALL SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_CREATE_USER('resiste_standalone', 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx');
And I have the following in derby.properties
# Passwords don't expire for 20 years
derby.authentication.native.passwordLifetimeMillis=631138520000
# Use the best hash algorithm you can
derby.authentication.builtin.algorithm=SHA-512
# Use a larger salt length for better security
derby.authentication.builtin.saltLength=128
# Re-hash this number of times for better security
derby.authentication.builtin.iterations=1564
BTW, I've updated code to dynamically
System.setProperty("derby.system.home","/path/to/dir"); at runtime based off of
user configuration. That been successful. So if I move the database to somewhere other than my
application's default location, I set derby.system.home at runtime based on that configuration.
I also found that this is only a factor with embedded databases where the path
to the database is a fully qualified file system path. If the configuration
uses a remote database, the value for derby.system.home doesn't seem to matter.

Hi Mike,
What kind of authentication are you using: LDAP, NATIVE, or custom?

Greetings,
I have an interesting issue I just ran into and it took a little while to debug
and figure out exactly what is happening.
I have a project that uses an embedded Derby database. My project folder
organization is a typical for an open source project:
/projectname
/bin
start.sh // starts the application
/data
/projectdb // this is the derby database.
My projectdb database also has a specific username, password, and
permissions/roles on that user.
When I start the application, the "start.sh" script sets the -Dderby.system.home to the
"/data" directory and my JDBC connection URL figures out the fully qualified location of the
"/projectdb" directory so Derby can easily access it. This all works perfectly fine.
Then I wanted to run a test where I moved the /projectdb directory to a
different location. I though I would be able to do this with no problems. But
I was wrong :( When I do this I get the following authentication exception
Caused by: java.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: Connection
authentication failure occurred. Reason: Invalid authentication..

Which I thought was kind of odd. What I eventually discovered is the
-Dderby.system.home value and the location of the database must be in sync. If
they are not, I get the authentication exception. If do not set the
-Dderby.system.home value, I get this authentication exception.
Originally, I remember setting the -Dderby.system.home value because I wanted
the derby.log files created in that directory. I didn't expect this value would
also be critical for connecting to the database with a username/password. I
haven't tried it unauthenticated, but it seems to me I should be able to move
the location of the database around and as long as I'm connecting to the
database, authentication should work OK regardless of -Dderby.system.home and
the location of the database being in sync. This make sense?
Thanks!
Mike
