RE: JDBC Driver Trouble on Linux

Try unjarring the driver, and then jarring it back up again (making sure all
the directories are correct) but WITHOUT compression.

$ jar -xvf postgresql.jar
$ jar -cv0f postgresql.jar org

The first command should unpack and unj(t)ar the jar file into an org
directory with sub-directories. The second command packs them all up again
with no compression.

This has caused me problems in the past, although I have not gone into it in
any depth, so I haven't identified the exact cause, or even exactly when it
happens.

Let me know...
