<p>According to the error you are having:</p>
<p><code>Driver org.postgresql.Driver claims to not accept jdbcUrl</code></p>
<p>It seems that there are a few issues with that URL, and a latest PSQL driver may complain.</p>
<ol>
<li><code>jdbc:postgres:</code> isn't right, use <code>jdbc:postgresql:</code>instead</li>
<li>Do not use <code>jdbc:postgresql://&lt;username&gt;:&lt;passwor&gt;..., user parameters instead: jdbc:postgresql://&lt;host&gt;:&lt;port&gt;/&lt;dbname&gt;?user=&lt;username&gt;&amp;password=&lt;password&gt;</code></li>
<li>In some cases you have to force SSL connection by adding <code>sslmode=require</code> parameter</li>
</ol>
