Description bernt 2005-11-24 10:14:02 UTC 
When trying to connect to a Derby database (which I created with Netbeans) with

Runtime->Databases->Drivers->Apache Derby (Embedded)

with the url jdbc:derby:/export/home/tmp/DB/AddressBook

I get the message

Unable to add connection, cannot establish a connection to
jdbc:derby:/export/home/tmp/DB/AddressBook using
org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver (Failed to start database
'/export/home/tmp/DB/AddressBook', se the next exception for details.)

There is no problem connecting to the same database with other tools,
e.g. Derby's ij.
Comment 1 Martin Schovanek 2005-11-24 10:42:50 UTC 
What version of Nb and what OS do you use? Are you able to reproduce in the
latest Nb 5.0 dev build?

It looks like currently fixed issue 63957.

I use NetBeans IDE Dev Build (200511221900)
Linux 2.6.13-1.1532_FC4
Comment 3 Andrei Badea 2005-11-25 15:33:23 UTC 
Fixed.

Checking in ConnectUsingDriverAction.java;
/cvs/db/src/org/netbeans/modules/db/explorer/actions/ConnectUsingDriverAction.java,v
 <--  ConnectUsingDriverAction.javanew revision: 1.31; previous revision: 1.30
done

I guess you have a db.lck file in your database directory. Remove it before you
try to add the database to the Runtime tab.
