Why are you trying to put the jar in your root's lib folder, or are you
logged into the GUI as root ?

Did you change the permissions on that folder after downloading so that
it was accessible ? From what you describe, it sounds like you didn't.
Some systems do not automatically enable the execute bit attribute on
files that you download from the internet or is it perhaps your Software
folder that has write/execute limitations ? LO needs to be able to
access the jar file in a folder which it can read from.

Check the permissions on your /software folder and also the permissions
on the hsqldb folder and any files in it. The jar file at least, needs
to have the executable bit set.
