Hi Ziad,

I'm forwarding your question to the list. It's best for you to post
there, rather than contacting any of us directly, so that you get the
benefit of the GeoTools hive mind :)

Please see my responses below.

Can you tell me what version of GeoTools you're using ?  The line
number in the error message doesn't seem to match the source code in
GeoTools 2.6.x.

That should be fine (assuming that postgis is running on your local
machine and listening to the default port number 5432). You don't need
to fill in schema if your db is in the public schema.

Namespaces can be used to organize your database and avoid conflicts
between names of tables etc. I don't actually know much about postgis
/ postgresql so I'll defer to someone else to give a better
explanation or leave you to google it.

Have a look at this page in the GeoServer docs which defines these
parameters in a bit more detail that the text on the wizard page...

http://geoserver.org/display/GEOSDOC/PostGIS+DataStore

I've just run PostGIS2Example and successfully connected to a database
so I think the (not very helpful) error you're getting is probably
from your inputs (assuming that your PostGIS server is running).

You might like to try connecting to this public database to confirm
that the example app is working...

host: www.refractions.net
port: 5432
database: demo-bc
user: demo
