Start the H2 database in server mode via Spring

Question

I'm trying to start the H2 database in server mode (I want it to run in a different process) via Spring. Currently I'm using java Runnable.exec to start the h2 database (using the command: "java -cp h2.jar org.h2.tools.Server")

I know that there is a way to do it via Spring. I tried to add the following to the spring configuration, but it didn't work (it didn't start the H2 database):

    <bean id="org.h2.tools.Server" class="org.h2.tools.Server"
        factory-method="createTcpServer" init-method="start" destroy-method="stop">
        <constructor-arg value="-tcp,-tcpAllowOthers,true,-tcpPort,8043" />
    </bean>

    <bean id="org.h2.tools.Server-WebServer" class="org.h2.tools.Server"
        factory-method="createWebServer" init-method="start">
        <constructor-arg value="-web,-webAllowOthers,true,-webPort,8082" />
    </bean>

I would appreciate any help/ideas

Do you happen to have:

<beans default-lazy-init="true" ...

in your Spring configuration files?
