The jar is not on your classpath, or you are not spelling the class
name ("org.postgresql.Driver") correctly.  I don't know of any other
reason that the recommended class loading:

    Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver");

would throw a ClassNotFoundException.  (If that's not what you're
doing, or that's not the statement on which it fails, or that's not
your exception, you need to give us more clues.)

There are examples here:
