I know I said I was busy, but I had an idea and had to try it, otherwise I
wouldn't be able to focus on what I really should be doing.
I changed pom.xml to read:
<webapp.databaseTempDir>${user.home}/temp</webapp.databaseTempDir>
So that the "temp" directory would be created under my home directory
instead of under the root directory.
Did a clean built and redeployed and everything worked as expected. a
"temp" directory was created under my home directory containing the
database.
Maybe we should make this change permanently? Everybody should have write
permissions to their own home directory, this way we avoid permissions
issue on operating systems other than Windows.
Now for real, I have work, that needs to get done.
