Thanx for suggestions,
I was able to resolve this by changing table and field names all to lower
case letters.
In psql, on a linux box I would get the relation to capitoli not found
whether I typed "Capitoli" of "capitoli" for the table name. Seems that psql
does not differentiate between caps and lower case. Same for field names.
The only thingI can think of is that I load an Italian keyboard map?
Anyway, we sahall continue like this for now.
Thanx to all:-)

This may sound like an assinine suggestion, but stranger things have
happened... Are you sure you're connecting to database you think you're
connecting to? Are you typing this in at the psql prompt or doing it
some other way? Can you show us a pg_dump of the database schema?
