Information needed

From

Hi,

I'm doing a MSc Project and have used a postgres database. I want to
connect my java servlet with the database but encounter problems
connecting with the driver class. I know that many Internet sites state
that the org.postgresql.Driver is the correct driver class but I cannot
obtain a connection.

Please can somebody tell me what the problem may be and how it can be
solved.

Not without a great deal more information. Post the code you are using
plus a stack trace of the exception and someone might be able to help.

BTW, there is a web site called java.sun.com which has a tutorial on JDBC.
Maybe you should read that.

You will have to give us more information than that, what is the error
message, stack trace, your code, etc...

Post the relevant part of your servlet code (the attempt to make a
connection).  And if you are getting any errors or other relevant
information, include that too.
