Funny coincidence! I was just trying to get it to work with PostgreSQL. It mostly works, as already commented on the Jira issue. The only thing that seems to work unreliably is the initial template creation. It seems likely that it is the same issue. But having looked into this I'm a bit worried about the current XEM implementation. I'm not an expert on Hibernate, but to me it seems that entities are expected to be bound to specific tables at initialization time. So I'm wondering, does Hibernate really support changing the mappings by switching databases or schemas underneath? What prevents it from generating prepared queries for accessing the entities, which will be resolved against the initial database/schema, and continue to use these even after the database or schema changes? +1 for your action plan.
