Manjula Kutty commented on DERBY-2433:
--------------------------------------

I bumped in to a similar problem while running the scripts from the bin directory. The Message is misleading. Also the scripts should either start the server with -noSecurityManager option or should have a proper error message like the one for the DERBY_HOME  to set the authentication properties or as a third option can give generic authentication properties in default derby.properties file.

>             Project: Derby
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Network Server
>    Affects Versions: 10.3.0.0
>            Reporter: Daniel John Debrunner
>
> jar -jar lib/derbyrun.jar server start
> Network Server startup failed. User authentication should be enabled before the
> Network Server installs a security manager. Please either set the 'derby.connect
> ion.requireAuthentication' system property to true or run the network server wit
> h the '-noSecurityManager' option.
> 1) Setting derby.connection.requireAuthentication to true is not sufficient to have a working system.
> 2) Use of "should" in "should be enabled", it's a requirement, so use "must"
> 3) Hopefully setting the derby properties in derby.properties also works so there is no requirement for the authentication to be defined using *system* properties.
>  Maybe the wording could just state that authentication must be setup and somehow reference the appropriate properties?
