I m using h2db with a test T24 tafj application  I had the same problem but I managed to resolve it by identifying the application that is running h2  launched when I attempted to setup a database connection    ps aux grep java   will give output as     sysadmin 22755  3 2  0 1 5189724 64008 pts 3   Sl   08 28   0 00  usr java default bin java -server -Xmx2048M -XX MaxPermSize 256M -cp h2-1 3 175 jar  r14tafj TAFJ dbscripts h2 TAFJFunctions jar org h2 tools Server -tcp -tcpAllowOthers -baseDir  r14tafj t24 data   now kill this with its process id   kill -9 22755   and at last remove the lock file   rm -f dbname lock db

H2 is still running  I can guarantee it   You need to use a TCP connection for multiple users such as -    lt property name  javax persistence jdbc url  value  jdbc h2 tcp   localhost C  Database Data production    gt    OR  DriverManager getConnection  jdbc h2 tcp   localhost server  dbname   username   password      It also means you need to start the server in TCP mode  Honesetly  it is pretty straight forward in the documentation   Force kill the process  javaw exe for Windows   and make sure that any application that might have started it is shut down  You have an active lock

You can also delete file of the h2 file database and problem will disappear   jdbc h2   dbname means that file h2 database with name db name will be created in the user home directory    means user home directory  I hope you work on Linux     In my local machine its present in   home jack dbname mv db I don t know why file has a name dbname mv db instead a dbname   May be its a h2 default settings   I remove this file    rm   dbname mv db    OR    cd     rm dbname mv db    Database dbname will be removed with all data  After new data base init all will be ok
