Subject: [INTERFACES] Jdbc Trouble


Dear Sir,
I am trying to access postgres through a jdbc connection but i get 
NoSuitable river at RunTime.I had put the jar files after extracting them
in jdk1.2/jre/lib/ext  directory.
Do I need to rename the Jarfile?

PM: No, the naming of the jar file is irrelavent in this case. Are you
loading the driver with Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver"); ?

Where do  i put the jar files that i get by extracting the driver provided.

on download  iget two jar file named 7.0-1.1 and 7.0-1.2
and not one jar file named postgresql.jar

PM: Those are the two versions of the driver, one for JDK1.1 the other for
JDK1.2. You need to put the 7.0-1.2 jar file into your lib/ext directory.
Get rid of the 7.0-1.1. If you want, you can rename 7.0-1.2 as
postgresql.jar

Please Help

With Best Regards
Manish
