This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
It happened to me that after running a web application (which also launches JavaDB) and shutting down NetBeans, JavaDB continues to run. I don't remember the exact steps. (Maybe it was after I removed the server instance from the servers manager?)
Petr, could you remember it or add more details about the problem? Should JavaDB support quit all connections while IDE is coming down?
