connect to Postgresql/PostGis

Not sure if this wasn't already mentioned in issue #133 but when I try to import a Database Table from a postgresql db (with postgis extension installed) I get the error message
The driver for PostGIS was not found. Please add the driver to the path and try again
Could you maybe point out which Driver is needed, where I can get it from and where to put it.
I am using Karma 2.053 on windows (10) but we are also running Karma on Linux (CentOS)
Thank you very much!
Assuming you used the 'One click install' and extracted it somewhere. Navigate to that folder and further to resources, app where you will find jre1.x... and a folder 'lib' within. Copy the whole path to the lib folder.
Download the current PostgreSQL JDBC driver from https://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html and put it into the lib folder.
In the main Karma window, navigate to "File", "Set Java Home". Paste the path you just copied, click okay and restart Karma. You should now be able to open a DB connection.
Thank you!! That was it.
