max_index_keys is a GUC variable that reflects a server build
parameter, namely the maximum number of columns allowed in an index.
I am guessing that the JDBC driver is trying to read that variable
and it's not working because Redshift is descended from a PG version
that predates whenever we added that GUC. (Which was a long time
ago :-(.) I have no idea *why* the JDBC driver would need to know that.
You really need to ask about this on the pgsql-jdbc mailing list,
not here. There may not be a good solution other than using an ancient
JDBC driver with Redshift ... but the people who would know read that
list.
