Installing Borg 1.7.7 from source with Netbeans on Ubuntu 12.04: listening on port 2929

[Marco Arigoni]

I have downloaded the src file borg_src-1.7.7.zip and imported into Netbeans.
I can compile it well (for instance by going inside BORGCalendar/ant and issuing an
ant main)
When I try to run the net.sf.borg.control.Borg.java I get an error:

Java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver found for jdbc:h2:file:/home/mario/.borg_db/borgdb;USER=sa

Your database dir is set to:jdbc:h2:file:/home/mario/.borg_db/borgdb;USER=sa
If a bad database dir is causing the error, please click OK to change it.

Then the asks for a database directory and next time I restart the same error again.
I thought the problem was with me having previously used the binary Borg edition and having then removed the database folder so I tried removing the preferences and old database log files with a:

rm -fr /home/mario/.java/.userPrefs/
rm -fr .borg* 

However the above error persists every time I restart the application.
I therefore spent some hours figuring out what was wrong and finally found out the incriminating lines inside the file net.sf.borg.model.db.jdbc.JdbcDB.java the method connect(String urlIn):

InputStream is = JdbcDB.class.getResourceAsStream("resource/borg_hsqldb.sql");
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
InputStreamReader r = new InputStreamReader(is);

apparently resource/borg_hsqldb.sql is not found so I replaced it with a String containing the content of borg_hsqldb.sql

String string = "CREATE TABLE bla bla bla";
for (String t : string.split(";"))
                            {
                                execSQL(string);
                            }

Now all compiles well however now the program stops with a

INFO: Server: listening on port 2929

Can anyone help me out? what should I run now to see the cte Calendar panel??
THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Ok I found out, however please reply me anyway.
Basically in NetBeans for the whole project to work you need to rightclick on the project name -> properties -> libraries -> add folder and add the res/ folder inside the Borg directory for all database and icons resources to load.
Otherwise you get a series of nullPointer exceptions every time a getClass().getResource(...) is called.
Hope this helps..
