If building from source use the --with-java option to configure or simply
download a prebuilt binary from http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html

You just need to either build the JDBC driver, or get hold of one.

If you are building from source then you need to have ANT and a Java VM
installed. You also need to set environment variables ANT_HOME, JAVA_HOME,
and place the $ANT_HOME/bin path into the system path.

Then run

./configure --with-java

this will cause the JDBC driver to be built for you. If there are any
problems with the environment variable, you will see error messages. Keep
adjusting the variables, and then re-run the ./configure --with-java
command until it works.

See this document:
http://www.postgres.org/docs/current/interactive/installation.html

If you're using an RPM the driver may already be built. It is called
postgresql.jar and normally resides in:

/usr/local/pgsql/share/java/postgresql.jar

Good luck!
