This property creates a database relative to where the jar was executed from.

<property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:hsqldb:db/hsql/library;shutdown=true</property>

Relative URL's do not work. Use an absolute URL. For example, you can use the user's directory for the database files, or a directory that your app is installed in.
