I seem to be having some problems w/ the psql jdbc driver.  I'm able to load the driver, but as soon as I try to connect w/ the database. here's my code:
 
import java.sql.*;
 
public class dataBase {
    public static void main(String [] args){
        try {
            Class.forName("org.postgresql.DriverClass").newInstance();
            System.out.println("Driver Loaded Successfully");
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Unable to Load Driver " + e.getMessage() );
        }
        try {
            Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://localhost/mapping",
                "mapping", "");
        } catch (SQLException e) {
            System.out.println("SQLException: " + e.getMessage());
        }
    }
}
 
When I run this code as shown, I get the following output:
Driver Loaded Successfully
SQLException: No suitable driver
 
I'm trying to connect to the database "mapping" under the user "mapping" w/ no password. Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? I'm running psql ver 7.0.2 and jdbc driver "jdbc7.0-1.2.jar" and the java 1.3 jdk.  Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
