Nope - the location is relative to the program's install directory, and it's a simple embedded mode connection. The connect string looks like this: "jdbc:derby:databaseDir/databaseName;create=true" - creates a db if it doesn't already exist. Then I set autocommit to false, create 3 tables, do a commit(), reset autocommit to true, and leave.

One client site is running Active Directory, and on their networked machines, it seems that the db creation process jams. I suspect that they may have insufficient permissions to create a database, but they can read/write/install/etc on their machines no problem. They tried installing it on a home machine that had never been hooked up to their net, and it runs fine. Meanwhile, the app run great EVERYWHERE but there. The clients say that they are admins on their own machines. I'm baffled.
