looking at the driver mentioned below I looked up it source, i.e. from the sourceforge description.
 
"jxDBCon a framework to ease the development JDBC drivers. By using it you can concentrate on the tasks specific to your DBMS and benefit from the generic solutions provided by jxDBCon. jxDBCon contains a featureful driver implementation for PostgreSQL"
 
you can find more info at http://sourceforge.net/projects/jxdbcon
 
note the jar is jxDBCon.jar. it is included in both the basicportal and webcms lib directories.
 
i have not tried to get it to work yet but should be implementable based on the description.

the jars i use for my jsp pages are of the form jdbc7.2dev-1.2.jar or jdbc7.1-1.2.jar, depending on which version of postgres you are using (this is linux dist of postgres downloaded from postgres websites). windows distribution may have other jars. a quick look at jasic directories don't seem to show a jdbc jar except for jdbc-mysql.jar.

Hi Peter, Scott, "dschorsc":

Thank you all for your help!  It turned out that I needed the postgresql.jar in my classpath and once I put that in my classpath for my "alias" setting, the class.name and the url jdbc:postgresql:basicportal worked!

Once again, thanks to everyone who helped me over this hump!

Geeta
P.S. This jar is not included in the jasic/postgres folder. - I think Vic wanted to make this more interesting for us!! ;)  If anybody else needs the postgresql.jar, please write to me and I will be happy to send it to you.

    url=""

replace myDB with your database name.

Scott/Peter/anyone:

In the Squirrel window for entering the "Driver" info for PostgresSQL, I
have
the foll info:

jxDBCon-.jar-cvs03119 (in my "Extra class path")
and the class name as "org.sourceforge.jxdbcon.JXDBConDriver".

Is this correct? (I got a check mark against the "PostgreSQL" in my driver
list with these entries, so i assumed they were ok..?)

Thanks!
Geeta
