Hi, I am a newbie here in Drupal world and I am facing a lot of difficulties while I'm working with it. I hope somebody could send me some tips and facts about my concerns and here are those:
- I am developing a site on my local machine using Ubuntu 10.04 and its database is PostgreSQL. There are features/modules that were have errors after I install. Is there any compatibility problems? Are these features/modules shouldn't be installed and used with PostgreSQL?
I hope you could help me with my difficulties, thanks and more power!

It'll be helpful if you could
It'll be helpful if you could post those compatibility problems you're encountering.
Check the SQL syntax
List down the contributed modules you used from your website. Inspect which one is throwing an errors.
Go to the contributed modules folder and...
Try to look at the SQL dump file and see if the table create statements are going to need to be converted from MySQL to PostgreSQL.
Try also look inside the contributed modules u downloaded if the author included a .pgsql file. If theres none. You might need a conversion tool.
visit: http://sql.phpmix.com/index.php
Have a mysql and postgresql reference books beside you incase you need to check the syntax on both RDBMS.
Cheers!!!
Hope thats help. :D
Have you read Drupal's system requirements?
Hi!
Feel free to visit this webpage: http://drupal.org/requirements.
It outlines Drupal's webserver, database, PHP and other system resource settings. It also mentions something about PostgreSQL.
I hope this helps. Best regards,
