I have PostgreSQL 7.2.2 and (jdbc driver jdbc7.2dev-1.2.jar
is located in /usr/share/pgsql/ ). I'm writing a project where I use
technolgies like : Apache 1.3.27 + Tomcat 4.1.18 + Struts 1.x + ANT for
XML files + Sun (default) J2EE 1.3.1 server.

    The problem is that I don't know how to set up PostgreSQL driver
to be used with J2EE server (is it possible ?). I downloaded from the Sun
site J2EETutorial, and bank example. To run this example I need
use J2EE server, which is default delivered and configured with Cloudscape
database. There is a file called $J2EE_HOME/config/resource.properties
with settings for Cloudscape database. There is also a build.xml
file in the bank directory which builds classes,jars,ears etc. from
sources. Cloudscape setings are :

 <property name="cloud-lib" value="${myenv.J2EE_HOME}/lib/cloudscape" />
    <property name="system-lib" value="${myenv.J2EE_HOME}/lib/system" />
    <property name="cloud-path" value=".:${cloud-lib}/cloudclient.jar:${cloud-lib}/RmiJdbc.jar:
     ${system-lib}/cloudutil.jar:${system-lib}/cloudscape.jar"/>
    <property name="cloud-jvmargs" value="-ms16m -mx32m
-Dij.connection.CloudscapeDB=jdbc:rmi://localhost:1099/jdbc:cloudscape:
CloudscapeDB;create=true -Dcloudscape.system.home=${myenv.J2EE_HOME}\cloudscape" />

The whole thing is about how to change Cloudscape to PostgreSQL (ant
config + resource.properties + JNDI in source files) ?

I'll be very grsteful if anyone know the answer !

Please show us *exactly* what you typed and what responses you got.  The
above is too vague to let anyone offer much help.

            regards, tom lane

ps: pgsql-jdbc is not the right place for this discussion, try
pgsql-novice or pgsql-admin.

Yes, it is possible. But J2EE is only standart. It is not server.Servers are Orion,BEA, IBM WebSphere and so on.

It is not so easy.You will need to read much more about the SUN server. It will help you in feature.

In principe you will need this steps:
- read  how to make jdbc connection to pg. (J2EE uses jdbc).
- read the docs for SUN server to see where to put the jdbc library for pg.
- read the docs for SUN server to see how to define the JNDI for the db.

As I remember SUN server is not very easy for use.

I do not know.For me it is not connected to the db.
As I wrote J2EE is only standart. Also I have used the SUN-server with ingres and it is similat with pg ( as I know).
But the setup for each J2EE-server is not simpel.
