      How do I set the DefaultDS to use postgresql in Jboss AS 5.0.0 Beta 2?

          Do this:

          1) Copy docs/examples/jca/postgres-ds.xml to server/xxx/deploy

          2) Edit the postgres-ds.xml to contain information for your database.

          3) Add a < metadata > entry to postgres-ds.xml (you need this to get some of the services to work correctly):

          <datasources>
           <local-tx-datasource>
           . . .
           <metadata>
           <type-mapping>PostgreSQL 8.0</type-mapping>
           </metadata>
           </local-tx-datasource>
          </datasources>


          4) Delete the server/xxx/deploy/hsqldb-ds.xml file

          5) Start the server. Any required tables are created automatically.

            Looks like I made a few assumptions in my post. Here are the missing steps:

            1a) Copy the PostgreSQL JDBC driver JAR file to the server/xxx/lib directory.

            1b) Add a user with a password. and create a database in PostgreSQL. (Use this info for step 2)

            In step 2, also change the JNDI name in the postgres-ds.xml file to DefaultDS.

            By the way, you can rename postgres-ds.xml to anything you like, as long as it ends with -ds.xml. I usually use the JNDI name, that is, defaultds-ds.xml.

              Thanks for your response, sorry I should have been more specific in my initial question.
              I'd done what you suggested above but I'm getting problems. These seem to stem from the fact that "qrtz_locks" table does not exist.

                Yet some more steps. These replace the Hypersonic-specific messaging configuration files with their PostgreSQL equivalents:

                4a) Download the binary files for JBoss Messaging. Make sure you get the correct version (1.2.0.sp1).

                4b) Delete the file server/xxx/deploy/messaging/hsqldb-persistence-service.xml

                4c) Copy the file examples/config/mysql-persistence-service.xml from the JBoss Messaging binary download to the server/xxx/deply/messaging directory

                However, this doesn't fix the problem with Quartz. Looking at http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-quartz/, it would appear that you have the manually create the database tables before Quartz can use a database as a job store. But what bugs me is that in the quartz.properties file, the org.quartz.jobStore.class property is set to org.quartz.simpl.RAMJobStore, which means that it should not be using the database.
