Description

JdbcConnectionFactory fails in the case where it uses FileLocator to find the database, but the path would be encoded inside a URL (e.g. if it has a space in it).  In this case, getConnectionUrl was producing a percent-encoded URL, but Hsqldb doesn't decode the URL it receives, it just treats it like a scheme followed by a plain file path.

 

Patch attached.
