You can also delete file of the h2 file database and problem will disappear.

jdbc:h2:~/dbname means that file h2 database with name db name will be created in the user home directory(~/ means user home directory, I hope you work on Linux).

In my local machine its present in: /home/jack/dbname.mv.db I don't know why file has a name dbname.mv.db instead a dbname. May be its a h2 default settings. I remove this file:

rm ~/dbname.mv.db 

OR:

cd ~/ 
rm dbname.mv.db 

Database dbname will be removed with all data. After new data base init all will be ok.
