Thanks,

there was really JDK 17 in use.
I changed it to Java 1.8
PS C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 9.0\bin> java
-version
java version "1.8.0_381"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_381-b09)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.381-b09, mixed mode)

but the same error occured :
java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver found for
jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/mushroom_database
         at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:689)
         at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:247)
         at MushroomAPIs.AddMushrooms.doGet(AddMushrooms.java:30)
  why  java.sql gives that error ?

for some reason the postgresql jar is not in the classpath.

Dave
try to call "Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver");" before "connection = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL, USER, PASSWORD);" i had some issues with getConnection() some time ago and this was the solution. no idea why.
