I just completed a Java project that uses Apache Derby Database as Back-End. I used Embedded server for the Database Connection so as to let it run independent of any Network Server. Now, my problem is this....

The program works very fine on my Computer. But when I installed and run it on Another Computer, all the functions are working perfectly except the database driven aspect(Insert, update and select and so on).
I have tested it on Linux, and Windows, the problem persist.

Now, I think the Database needs to locate it file directories to make the connection possible. And the directories( my database address) that I used to connect the database is not on the Client's Computer.

So, I want someone to teach me how to embed the database files with the application package so that all the database files will be packaged as .exe file with the Application.

NB:
I used Netbeans IDE for the whole development.

Thanks.

Answer to your problem may depend on the routine of your program.
Like you pointed out, you may need to ensure that the path to where your data storage is not the culprit.
