Search:

I don't see you specify the location of the database. The link I posted above explains how to do this...is it a file (jdbc:hsqldb:file:....)? Is it a URL (jdbc:hsqldb:http://...)?

See post 4 - and pay special attention to the word 'documentation'. A simple google search pulled up the following documentation page:
Chapter12.Properties
Have you tried what is described in that...
