RE: JDBC help

Which version of jdbc driver are you using?

Versions 6.5.x and earlier used postgresql.Driver but from 7.0 it's now
org.postgresql.Driver

If that's not the problem, how about trying either:

* Put postgresql.jar into the jre's lib/ext directory
* Try the IE applet hack of not calling DriverManager but postgresql.Driver
directly

Im having problems with visual J++ 6.0 (yeah it scabby but i have to use
it). I've included the postgresql.jar file in the class path but it fails on
the Class.forName("postgresql.Driver"); bit, what have I missed out? or is
there some strange microshaft issue. Can anyone recommend a windows based
java compiler that works well with postgres? urls infor appricaited!
Stoo
