trying to connect gives :sun.io.CharToByteUTF-8 Exception

Hi,
I've working with postgreSQL and JDBC. I've made some proves and all has gone ok. But now, I've to do in other machine.
There is Postgresql 7.3.2, with ant. I've the in CLASSPATH the jar file.
But when I tried to run the code there is thrown a exception when it try to getConnection:
 
Something unusual has occured to cause the driver to fail. Please report this
exception: Exception: java.lang IllegalArgumentException: sun.io.CharToByteUTF-8 ...."
The thing it's that the same code works in other matchine, and I'm not able to find the error.
I've been looking for it, but I haven't got any result.
 
Does anybody know where is my fault?
 
Thanks a lot,
 
yours

Cris..
