Hi,

I am having some difficulties connecting to a local postgresql database via jdbc driver.

my setup is:
mandrake 10.0
j2sdk1.4.2
postgresql 7.4.3

I've configured postgresql from its source with --with-java option, make, and make install.

The default directory for the postgresql.jar is /usr/local/pgsql/share/java/postgresql.jar
I've run >jar -tf /usr/local/pgsql/share/java/postgresql.jar and the class files seem to be in the right order.

I've added the following line to the pg_hba.conf to test local connections via jdbc driver.
local all all 127.0.0.1 trust

Also, changed the postgresql.conf
tcpip_socket = true

Added CLASSPATH to bashrc file
export CLASSPATH=/usr/local/pgsql/share/java/postgresql.jar:${CLASSPATH}

and I am trying to run the following code
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.*;

public class Xlang {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver");
...
}
}

and I am getting the following exception..

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.postgresql.Driver

Any ideas would be very much appreciated.

YJ
