Dear Sir,  i am using postgresql 6.5.3 on red hat 6.2...  i downloaded j2sdk-1_3_0_02-linux-rpm.bin fromjava.sun.com
andstored it in my root directory withthe same name.  i have jdbc6.5-1.2.jar and         jdbc6.5-1.1.jar in
/usr/lib/pgsqldirectory. i use following code for the driver in my javaapplication:
Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver")  it compiles fine but when i give java filename itgives the following error:  
 

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:org/postgresql/Driver then i included the name of jar file in my classpath with the
commandexport CLASSPATH=.:/usr/lib/pgsql/jdbc6.5-1.2.jar it still gives the same problem........ then i tried to
compilethe driver using the command make jdbc2  but it gives the following error:  make:**No rule to make target jdbc2
Stop also my system has no file called postgresql.jar.  please tell me what to do.  Thanks  help will be appreciated

Time to upgrade.

Back then it was just "postgresql.Driver".

Yep. "org.postgresql.Driver" only came in with 7.0. For anything earlier drop 
the org. part of the package.
