Hi Antonio

The BaseX home directory is static and will only be assigned once (see
[1] for more information). You should have more success by assigning a
directory to "org.basex.dbpath", but it's better to directly assign a
new path to the context:

  Context context = new Context(false);
  context.soptions.set(StaticOptions.DBPATH, "/mnt/test/db_1");
  ...

Hope this helps,
Christian
