    Thrown when an application tries to call an abstract
    method. Normally, this error is caught by the compiler; this error
    can only occur at run time if the definition of some class has
    incompatibly changed since the currently executing method was last
    compiled.

In plain English, the above usually means you are using the wrong
version of a library that has changed incompatibly between releases.

It looks like you have pg73jdbc1.jar (or pg72jdbc1.jar) somewhere
on your classpath.  You need pg72jdbc2.jar.  See
