Has anyone successfully used Derby with OS X 10.4 and Java

I've used the

fix.
I am able to create a database and put data into it. But after
shutting down and starting a new session, I get the "log
transaction ..." error when I try to add to it.
Hi Barnet,
When you shut down and start a new session, you need to set that
system property in the new session as well. Because this is a general
problem with the way the Apple JVM writes "rws" mode files, you need
to force Derby to use "rw" mode each time you start up, or the same
error will be hit when Derby attempts to write new data. As you have
discovered, reading files works as expected, but the bug in the JVM
is only hit if you attempt to write.
Try setting that system property each time you connect and you should
be able to write new data to the database in each session, so long as
that system property is set each and every time before you obtain a
connection to the database.
The property can also be set in the derby.properties for that
database. For more information on how to do that, please see the
section "Changing the system-wide properties by using the
derby.properties file" in the Derby Tuning Guide:
http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.1/tuning/
about half way down the page. Note that the file needs to be in the
location specified by the derby.system.home property, and that there
is only one derby.properties per system, not per database.
hope that helps,
andrew
