Hello @tyrian_317

download the related postgresql driver from https://jdbc.postgresql.org/

Copy the .JAR driver file to the $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/splunk_app_db_connect/drivers directory (%SPLUNK_HOME%\etc\apps\splunk_app_db_connect\drivers on Windows hosts).

and as a filnal step reload the driver under Settings>Drivers.
