I am using java-ee application running on wicket.
The problem is, that the connection to the HyperSQL database with JDBC creates a huge log file *.log. Example of my URL:
jdbc:hsqldb:file:C:\database\text;hsqldb.sqllog=0;hsqldb.applog=0
I need to turn off the logging with some jdbc url parameter. I have tried these:
hsqldb.sqllog=0;hsqldb.applog=0;
That is not working, so I have tried this combination:
hsqldb.log_data=false;hsqldb.reconfig_logging=false
But with these parameters, when I stop the app, the data disappears.
The text.log file is the record of transactions performed on your database. If you disable it with hsqldb.log_data=false the transactions are not persisted to disk. The name is derived from the file name on your database URL.
The hsqldb.sqllog and hsqldb.applog settings are for diagnostics and default to 0.
The hsqldb.reconfig_logging=false is also for diagnostics and works together with hsqldb.applog setting. These settings are discussed in the Guide: http://hsqldb.org/doc/2.0/guide/management-chapt.html#mtc_monitoring_operation
So if you want your data to survive when your app shuts down, you should not disable the default log. See http://hsqldb.org/doc/2.0/guide/management-chapt.html#mtc_cache_persistence on how to reduce the size of the text.log file.
