If you're just learning Derby, you don't need to use the Network Server and Network Client.
Try following the "embedded" path in http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.15/getstart/twwdactivity1_overview.html It's a lot simpler. Then when you're more comfortable with Derby you can move up to the Network Server and its additional administration issues. bryan On Thu, Nov 7, 2019 at 11:29 PM Banibrata Dutta <banibrata.du...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi Folk, > > Trying to use Derby for the first time.
