Problem resolved:
Special Thanks to Robert J. Sanford and Ryan Marsh for their detailed
notes on making OJB and Postgres work. I am running 0.9.7 on W2000 with
Postgres on SunOS..
Version 0.9.7 does repair most of the problems except one. That linefeed
in torque.jar.. As soon as I unzipped the jar, edited the index.vm file
and re-zipped it all up. Everything started to work. So OJB and Postgres
work together as far as I can tell.
Just for completeness I am inclosing the profile file that I am using...
Hopefully this will help someone else out..
