I am seeing the following error logged in server.log:

I believe it is down to the code suggested in ISPN-1204, which eventually was committed, perhaps not quite working against PostgreSQL 9.0?

I have attached a debugger to a live JBoss instance with this code running, and set a breakpoint on entry into the tableExists() method. PostgreSQL threw an exception and it was caught, but later on, the attempt to create the table in the TableManipulation.createTable() method resulted in the exception given above. Perhaps the JdbcUtil.safeClose() methods do not work against PostgreSQL 9.0?
