[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1428?page=all ]

Daniel John Debrunner updated DERBY-1428:
-----------------------------------------

     Summary: Multiple applications within a single jvm generating derby 
properties on the fly can lead to non-deterministic engine startup behavior  
(was: Generating derby properties on the fly can lead to non-deterministic 
engine startup behavior)
    Priority: Minor  (was: Major)

Improve the summary to indicate this is an issue with multiple applications 
only.

>
> 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.
