embedded DERBY with netbeans: gettin unable to connect to driver

[GPXtC02]

Java DB is started.
I can connect to a preexisting DERBY db fine through Network, but no matter what I can't connect with Embedded.
I feel like the project's class paths are right.

I've looked through alot of threads with similar problems but no one seems to find a solution..
Is this a bug in Netbeans or am i missin' somethin?

Thanks!

I have your setup working.

Here's what I do:

1. Set the derby.system.home to your desired path

private void setDBSystemDir() {
// Establish the db system directory: <userhome>/.hims/
String userHomeDir = System.getProperty("user.home", ".");
String systemDir = userHomeDir + "/.hims";
// Set the db system directory.
System.setProperty("derby.system.home", systemDir);
}

2. Create EntityManagerFactory
Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory(pu)

Of course the driver shold be in the classpath.

hmm, still returns the same error in the netbeans ide.

I'm doing this in netbeans so i'm not really sure how and when the driver class is called into the driver manager.

Anyone understand why it's giving me this error? I have the derby.jar imported and the class path's seem right, but for some reason every time I try to make a new Embedded connection in the IDE's Services window it says it can't find the correct driver.
