It is discussed in the docs and it was discussed on this list several times. This guess is not contradictory to Claudias assumption: fresh_install can be run only once against a virgin database. It will always fail with a second try. So you have to remove the database with every try if you succeeded partially as in your example. For the proper jdbc driver go to this page and study the matrix: <http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html> <http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download/postgresql-8.2-506.jdbc3.jar> I guess, this is your driver and it should be the version that you get if you install through aptitude or whatever you use. If aptitude installs another version, then try this one and check if it works. If this is fine, file a bug to debian. Also, search your Java path for duplicate jdbc drivers of different versions. Maybe, you installed the right version but it does not get used. If you cant connect to postgres through psql then forget about the jdbc driver and fix this first. The pg_hba.conf file is the place to go and learn about. Bye, Christian (If german is more convenient, you may try by private mail, but I am online in the evening hours only and the list incorporates much more knowledge and experience.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
