Sorry to bother you. The problem turns out to be what seems to me an
unbelievable bug (feature?) in the PostgreSQL administration tool PGAdmin
shipped with version 9.3: if you use that tool to create a table, the name of
the table includes double quotes.
I decided, just for grins, to try the insert statement I specified in my
configuration file:
INSERT INTO Log (message) VALUES ('This is a log message')
It didn't work!
Neither did:
INSERT INTO log (message) VALUES ('This is a log message')
But this worked:
INSERT INTO "Log" (message) VALUES ('This is a log message')
But I don't know how to include double quotes inside an XML attribute. So, I
deleted the table and recreated it manually, making sure not to use
double-quotes around the identifiers. Once I did that, I got the log messages
in the table as expected.
