Serge, looks from the trace, that you have HSQLDB already running, see:

java] [Server@a97b0b]: [Thread[HSQLDB Server @a97b0b,5,main]]: run()/openServerSocket():
[java] java.net.BindException: Address already in use: JVM_Bind
[java] [Server@a97b0b]: Initiating shutdown sequence...

You can only ever have one instance of hsqldb running at any given time. Not sure what else on your system would be running with hsqldb.

1. When you deploy the jbossesb.sar, you intend to run the esb on JBossAS. With it you get a hsqldb, I configured it to be running on port 9001 (which I will change going forward). You should do a ant deploy-jars, to deploy some tb code, and do an 'ant deploy.war' to deploy the tb-WS along with the little jsp page. Now you can run submit a request from that jsp page. Note that oy will have to make sure the settings in the jbossesb-properties.xml are correct. Look at the settings for the mail server (org.jboss.soa.esb.mail.smtp.*), and you should make the path to the template an absolute one (org.jboss.soa.esb.trailblazer.email.template.path).

2. When you do an ant runESB, this runs the esb standalone. So it as part of the startup script it beings up hsqldb for the registry. So if you want to use this option, just start with a fresh jboss, and only run ant deploy-war.

Sorry for the confusion. Like I said before, on the trunk I will make hsqdb run embedded on the appserver to prevent the contention for port 9001.

Hope this helps.

To run in memory you can try this for your hsqldb-ds.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Also not that we the wrong default.script file was shipping. Please you this one:

Maybe runing the examples with Mysql DB is better and esasier.
