Interesting. What happens if you run the following query in psql:

 SELECT class, scope, scope_id, security_level 
   FROM sys_security WHERE class like '%Handler%'

Also, see what uid the superuser is:

 SELECT user_id FROM sys_user WHERE login_name = 'superuser'

It could be that the superuser doesn't have the ID that OI expects,
normally '1'. If not, you can change this in the server configuration
under the 'default_objects.superuser' key.

Did you modify the various SPOPS definitions to use SPOPS::DBI::Pg
rather than SPOPS::DBI::MySQL? You should be able to accomplish this all
at once by doing:

 $ oi_manage change_spops_driver \
             --website_dir=/path/to/mysite \
             --driver=SPOPS::DBI::Pg

Sounds like you've got another webserver running somewhere. This isn't a
big deal.

See how the security stuff above pans out. Hopefully one of those items
will get a hit.
