Hi and thank you for responding but I have to put a class as db.driver value into  String driver and
then  loaded this way Class.forName(driver);
It works with the oracle driver.
I am using Postgresql JDBC Driver 42.2.25 and Driver.class eg:_ db.driver=Driver.class
but is rejected as not executable. It should be very simple. Does anyone use the Driver.class?
TIA
Poul

The documentation
(https://jdbc.postgresql.org/documentation/head/load.html)
has it:

  Prior to Java 1.6, the driver had to be loaded by the application - either by calling

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

  or by passing the driver class name as a JVM parameter.

  java -Djdbc.drivers=org.postgresql.Driver example.ImageViewer

  These older methods of loading the driver are still supported but they are no longer necessary.

Yours,
