at last count there are 16 different supported drivers for Postgres http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html#current
which driver are you implementing? BTW here the url should be jdbc:postgresql://host:port/database contents of %POSTGRES_HOME%/data/postgresql.conf: listen_addresses = 'localhost' # what IP address(es) to listen on; # comma-separated list of addresses; # defaults to 'localhost', '*' = all # (change requires restart) port = 5432 assuming the host and port are identical the URL should be.. jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/databaseask your DBA what the name of the DB is..
