Java DB, which comes with Java SE6 has support for an Embedded driver. How come one is not able to create databases using this embedded driver in Netbeans?
dev build 200806111204 1) In the Services tab, right-click on JavaDB and click on "Create new database" 2) Netbeans (incorrectly) assumes that the user wants a network driver, so it starts up Derby in client-server mode. 3) The user clicks on OK to create the database. All the files are created correctly but then an error dialog pops up: "An error occurred while creating the database: The Java DB (Network) driver was not found." This is actually not a fatal error because if you then "Create a new database connection" using your embedded driver it will work fine. The only thing Netbeans is missing is for the "Create new database" dialog to ask the user which driver he'd like to use (network or embedded).
I just took a look at 6.5 M1 and it seems to fix this issue altogether. Do you agree this should be closed as fixed?
Fixed.
Verified with build 080714.
