  • The PostgreSQL database server is with the following information:

    Driver: org.postgresql.Driver
    URL: jdbc:postgresql://qad04.jinfonet.com.cn:5432/postgres
    User: jrDesign
    Password: Test1234

  • A catalog has been created with a default data source.

Take the following steps to set up a connection which connects Logi JReport Designer to a database via PostgreSQL:

  1. Start Logi JReport Designer and open the catalog.
  2. In the Catalog Manager, right-click the node of the default data source and select New JDBC Connection from the shortcut menu. Select JDBC in the Select Connection Type dialog.
  3. In the Get JDBC Connection Information dialog, enter the JDBC driver class name org.postgresql.Driver in the Driver text field.
  4. In the URL text field, specify the URL as jdbc:postgresql://qad04.jinfonet.com.cn:5432/postgres.
  5. Input the user name jrDesign and password Test1234 respectively.
