Daniel John Debrunner commented on DERBY-1428: ---------------------------------------------- Is this a bug? - Derby is behaving as desgined. > Generating derby properties on the fly can lead to non-deterministic engine > startup behavior > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-1428 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1428 > Project: Derby > Type: Bug > Components: Store > Versions: 10.0.2.0, 10.0.2.1, 10.0.2.2, 10.1.1.0, 10.2.0.0, 10.1.2.1, > 10.1.3.0, 10.1.2.2, 10.1.2.3, 10.3.0.0, 10.1.2.4, 10.1.2.5, 10.1.4.0, 10.1.3.1 > Reporter: Rick Hillegas > > A Heisenbug can arise if more than one embedded Derby application runs in the > same VM and at least one of them generates derby properties on the fly. > Here's the problem scenario: > o The customer runs two embedded Derby apps in the same VM: EmbeddedApp and > OtherApp. > o EmbeddedApp generates derby properties on the fly before connecting to a > database and triggering engine startup. > o Whether the engine picks up those generated properties depends on whether > EmbeddedApp or OtherApp runs first. > Here are two workarounds for the problem: > 1) Don't generate derby properties on the fly. Instead, specify them on the > VM startup command. Or specify them in a $DERBY_HOME/derby.properties file > which is generated before the VM comes up and which does not change during > the lifetime of the VM. > 2) If you can't do (1), then modify the VM startup script so that the > self-configuring EmbeddedApp runs first. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
