title: H2 console remote access using webAllowOthers
body: <p>I am a quite new for H2 database.</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to access my console through a web browser, but I am getting this error :</p>
  
  <p><em>Sorry, remote connections ('webAllowOthers') are disabled on this server.</em></p>
  
  <p>I declared this option in my properties file as follows :</p>
  
  <p><code>spring.h2.console.settings.web-allow-others=true</code></p>
  
  <p>My properties file called monitor.properties and is located in the user home directory with 774 permission.</p>
  
  <p>My first thought was my properties file was being ignored and default options were being taken.</p>
  
  <p>But with a further investigation, I found this :</p>

  <p>So, despite my properties file is being read and the value true is recognized, I still not be able to access the console. I did a web research, but I didn't find anything that could bring me a light on this issue.</p>
  
  <p>Anyone here had faced a similar issue or has a clue about it?</p>
