I checked this: the entry for postgresql.jar is already present in
JBuilder.ini.

Do you know where I can get this patch ?
The site ftp://ftp.postgresql.org has been unreachable since yesterday

sites but I did not find there anything such as a jdbc patch related to
Jbuilder.

It does help, because I know at present (1) that it is possible to
connect the Jbuilder environment and Postgres and (2) that I am not
alone on the earth trying to do that !

Anyway, thanks for your reply.
