No, the point is that the number of values does not match the number of columns in the table. When I execute the example.identities.sql script from the HSQL Database Manager I get the error message: java.sql.SQLException: Column count does not match in statement [ | INSERT INTO JBPM4_ID_USER VALUES(1,0,'alex','password','Administrator Login','')] As far as I know you have to provide a value for all columns if you just use the syntax "INSERT INTO table VALUES(...)" without naming the columns.
