[quote="ajb":1eda7dn7]Welcome on board!
At first file permissions. Just read carefully the message
"Your hosting is compatible with default EPESI root .htaccess file, but installer cannot write to EPESI root directory."
Set the whole EPESI directory writable.

I've got an installation set on psql for development and testing purposes and I haven't encountered any issues.
Here is a sample code responsible for the connection to the psql during installation. Fill in the data and run to see the result
$host='';
$user='';
$pass='';
$link = pg_connect("host=$host user=$user password=$pass dbname=postgres");
var_dump($link); // should return something other than FALSE. False is the error.
Read here about postgres database. Maybe you don't have such database.

You could check your databases with
psql -l

I appreciate the welcoming.
I have tried your suggestions and everything appeared to be working fine. I then realized that there was an issue with the psql database name looking through some of the postgres logs after again trying the setup. I looked into the setup.php file and realized that its coded to automatically use dbname=postgress where i was specifying a data base name in the web install. I changed some of the code and it worked fine.
I also read up a little more on the use of htaccess files and securing an apache web server and figured out how i'd like it configured.
Thanks again for the suggestions!
