Do need to use the 'convert' button in the admin pages for the blobs? I
figured I didn't have to since storing blobs on disk was default in

Does anyone know what could be going wrong now?
Well, you will probably need to play around with jdbc driver versions.
The "convert" button for blobs didn't work for me since I didn't get the 
jdbc driver to communicate properly with postgres.

I my case, I gave up after spending too much time on it and decided to 
write a little perl script which uses a perl Pg module to retrieve the 
blobs from the DB and put them in the mmbase blobs-on-disk structure. It 
worked like a charm.
I can send a copy of the script if you're interested.
