I just checked the PG JDBC web site download page
<http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html>
and find no '.zip' files, only '.jar' files. The only zipped (actually,
GZIPped) file I see is the source distribution; presumably you only downloaded
the binary distribution.

In any event, make sure that it is a JAR file in your path. You might use a
ZIP program to view the contents to make sure that it is a proper JAR file
that you downloaded.

Thanks, well in fact I had downloaded the zipped file mentioned above
and unzipped it. Anyway, I've replaced it with
postgresql-8.3-603.jdbc4.jar from the link you gave, and put it in my
glassfish/domains/domain1/lib/ext/ directory, but I still don't know
how to go from there and get the first example in chapter 10 of Geary
and Horstmann "Core JavaServer Faces" to work. There is some
configuration I'm just not familiar with, as I'm new to this.
Incidentally I'm running Ubunto Linux.
