Glassfish + Postgres can't ping connection pool

Question

I try to make login page for web application using Glassfish 3.1 and Postgres. I have local database (localhost:5432). This is my connection pool:

Pool Name:pacjentauth
Resource Type:javax.sql.DataSource
Datasource Classname:org.postgresql.ds.PGSimpleDataSource
Driver Classname: [nothing here]

portNumber, ServerName, user and password are ok. This is error I get:

any ideas what could be wrong? If there's not enough information plz tell me what you need.

Answer 1

Ok, it was all about jar. I copied these files:

postgresql-9.2-1002.jdbc4
postgresql-9.2-1002.jdbc3

to C:\Users\epcs\GlassFish_Server\glassfish\domains\epacjent\lib and it finally works.

Answer 2

Have you attempted to put a Postgres JDBC driver jar in your GlassFish lib directory? With MySQL, we had to download a MySQL JDBC driver and copy the jar file into /opt/glassfishv3/glassfish/lib.
