Newbie question

From

Hello everyone,

I am quite new to Postgresql and JDBC and started to make my first
application to use postgresql. And here comes my doubt/question: is it
normal that it takes about 1 - 2 minutes to connect to the database? In
my case it actually does take that long, but I thought maybe I made
something wrong and you guys could give me a hint...

Thanks

Chris

Chris,

No, it isn't normal, but with the information you have provided it will
be difficult to analyze the problem.

Can you send us the operating systems involved, firewalls, etc.

Hi,

my operating system is SuSE Linux 9.0 with Java 1.4.2, postgresql 7.3.4
and the jdbc driver is pg73jdbc3.jar. I don't have a firewall set up, so
there shouldn't be any problem with that. I have the driver in the
lib/ext directory of my Java VM.

Ok, the only thing I can think of is you are doing a name lookup that is
returning, if you specify the ip address in the url does that speed it
up?
