Hi Serbulent, Erik, The database in question is not the RIM database, but actually an access database developed by Frank Oemig in Germany. He has a page about it here: http://oemig.de/HL7/hl7db.htm . I'm not actually sure what is involved in purchasing a copy, but I believe you need to contact HL7 international.
That said- If you wanted to elaborate on what you need to do, it might not require the database. The project is structured in such a way that you shouldn't need to use the database for building most of the HAPI library, just the predefined message structures. If you are trying to make modifications to the core hapi library (for instance to the parser, or some other core class), you can simply build using the "mvn -P CORE install" command. If you are trying to create custom message classes, this is actually fairly easy (although not well documented) without the use of a database. If you are trying to do that, maybe I can talk you through it and improve the documentation in the process. One other possibility is if you have found a bug in one of the predefined message types. If that is the case, I could probably just fix the problem on my copy and create a new structures distribution containing the fix. Sorry for the long email, hopefully this is useful.
