> ERROR 38000: The exception 'java.security.AccessControlException: access denied
> (java.util.PropertyPermission user.dir read)' was thrown while evaluating an exp
> ression)
> Can be seen in the store/encryptionKey.sql test, modify the _app.properties file to enable the security manager.
> Due to logging messages using File.getCanonicalPath in RawStore.java, lines 675 and 686.
> Possible solutions:
>   - use a privileged block and required user.dir permission granted to user.dir to backup to a relative directory
>   - use a privileged block,if a security exception is thrown then just display the relative name, otherwise display the full name. This would allow backups to succeed without requiring granting additional permissions to derby.jar
>   - just log the relative path
