Connect to MonetDB via JDBC without specifying database name on Linux

Our Java application works as the following: - it connects to the server without specifying any database name, - checks if the given database exists and creates a new one if not. On Windows, the application works fine but on Linux it cannot connect to the server. The error message: "monetdbd: please specify a database". We would like to run the same Java application on Linux and Windows. Is there any method to check and create database from Java on both operating system?

We have figured it out at last. A client can connect to an existing database only. On Windows the installer creates a demo database. If other database is not specified, the client connects to it automatically. On Linux the installer does not create any database, so it should be created manually.
