RE: [EXTERNAL] Re: Can you install/run postgresql on a FIPS enabled host?

I will have to find out the JDBC version. None of the containers will start (because of the database connection error) so I have to track down that version with one of our developers (I am on the platform team so not so well versed in the actual code). Will get back with that version.
