Just try and complete to make a working installation and then try something else... That what I suggest you.
Apache and web2py work pretty well under ubuntu and are maybe easier to deploy because a lot of poeple are using this config so the installation is automated by the script. If as you said you executed the ubuntu web2py installation script and it's still not working... You maybe need to have a look into postgresql configuration files... Search in the web2py thread and I am sure you will find a lot of advertisement of how to set basic conf for postgresql... You will have also to create user for postgresql and then list the IP that can connect to your postgres DB by default I think only localhost can connect (127.0.0.1), so you will not be able to connect to your web2py app doesn't matter if you have the IP adress of your Ubuntu server. Finnaly the last thing to be carefull as Fabro were saying is the permissions of your app when folder and subfolder and files... sudo -R www-data.www-data YOURAPP from /home/www-data/web2py/applications/ folder should do the tricks. The installation ubuntu web2py script should have create /home/www-data/web2py... Then you just have to copy you app recursively into the applications folder and set the permissions... That come at the end when you have set the progres config properly to be able to connect on it with pgAdmin and have a web2py app able to create a database in in.
