Problem with JDBC driver: rs.next() is always null

Hello there!

I'm trying to connect to a postgresql via the JDBC interface as follow:

...
Statement st=db.createStatement();    ResultSet rs=st.executeQuery("select datname from pg_database");
while(rs.next()){     out.addItem(rs.getString(1));      }      rs.close();      st.close();
 
....

The JVM throws a nullPointerException.
It seems that rs.next() is null even if the result set is not empty.

I'm working with Inprise Jbuilder 4 Foundation and Redhat Linux 7.0 
(kernel 2.2.16) running on my Athlon 750.

If anyone could help me I would appreciate.

P.S.:Sorry for my english!

rs should never be null from executeQuery(), and never from this one.

What version of the driver? I've just tested with the latest and this doesn't 
fail.
