Thank you very much for responding. I tried the following:
* Verified the repository location and deleted it.
* Logged into MySQL server and 'drop database jackrabbit_test;'
* Ran program to verify it would error out because it couldn't
connect to database... and it did.
* Re-deleted the repository location that had started to create from
above step.
* Logged into MySQL server and 'create database jackrabbit_test;'
* Ran program and saw old nodes outputted.
* Created a new project directory copying over only source code,
build file, libraries and config files. Ran and on the first time,
I am still getting the original nodes outputted.
The last step confirmed it for me - clearly I am missing, or more likely
mis-configuring, something on my end. I suspected that initially but I
guess I was hoping for a response that would fill me in on some backup
sort of directory this information might be hiding in. Or even something
regarding the database in MySQL which I guess wouldn't be covered by
this list anyways. Thanks for the pointers.

Well, the persisted data must certainly still be somewhere on your
hard drive. Maybe you deleted the wrong repository home directory or
the wrong tables in the database? Did you try to use a new home
directory location for jackrabbit?

First time posting a question to this list... Bear with me, I will try to
give as much information as possible.
I am currently working on a test program to familiarize myself with
Jackrabbit before incorporating it into our project. I am using MySQL as the
backend and I am running JackRabbit embedded. The purpose of my little test
program is to initialize a new TransientRepository, and populate it with
some nodes from a Beanshell file. In the test program, before I source the
Beanshell file to populate the repository, I make sure that the only node in
the repository is the jcr:system one. No need to do this step if it is
already populated. Then I output all the nodes and their properties
recursively. This part works great - no problems. Now I wanted to wipe out
this repository and rerun my program just to make sure that it indeed was
going to do what I expected. But it isn't... I deleted the repository home
directory, but when I rerun my program and get to the check for nodes other
than the jcr:system one, it still sees the nodes as they were populated the
first time I populated it! ( I tweaked the populating script to add
different values, which is how I know it is definitely using the old
values.) Yes I am logging out of the session and even calling shutdown. I
have tried the following in an attempt to get it to ignore those previous
values:
* Deleted the repository home directory.
* " and drop the mysql database it was accessing and re-creating it.
* " and drop the mysql database, and creating one with a new name,
and changing the URL access string to match the new database.
* Used the GarbageCollection methods at the end - scan, stopScan,
deleteUnused..
* Rebooted in the thought that something was hanging on in my memory.
For every single combination of attempts, when I rerun my program and get to
that check for more than the jcr:system node, I get the same results - the
old nodes are somehow still there. As if it truly isn't being deleted. I am
getting no exceptions or errors. I have scoured the mailing lists, wiki, JR
website and googled and can't seem to find any pertinent information. Should
this be happening? Have I missed something? Any pointers would be greatly
appreciated.
