Hi Amit, Thanks for looking at this! To reproduce the problem on Linux, I think all you have to do is try to create a database in the root directory or other unwritable file system via network server. I say, I think, because I don't actually have a linux system. The original bug (Derby-128) was discovered by linux users after my errant checkin to NSinSameJVM which made it try to create a database in the root directory. If just trying to create a database in the root directory with network server does not seem to work as I suspect, or you would like to reproduce using NSinSameJVM, you can just temporarily change this line. 82c82 < String url = jdbcUrlPrefix + databaseFileName; --- > String url = jdbcUrlPrefix + "/" + databaseFileName; or svn update -r 125447 NSinSameJVM.java to get the buggy test before fixed. Then run on Linux and you should see the NPE. Let me if that doesn't work. Kathey
