This sounds like a support problem to me, sad you didn't get any response.
Since they say "runs on any SQL RDBMS", you've probably hit an
installation issue or some kind of bug, but not a fundamentally
unported/rdbms-specific app. You're probably best off if somebody of the
XRMS people tells you what's wrong. If you can't get answers, XRMS is a
dead system, not suitable for usage unless you like deep hacking. For
sure, this forum is the wrong one for XRMS support. For almost immediate
answers (!) to postgresql-specific questions, go to pgsql-general.
