Have you been able to establish a JDBC connection at all or is this error
only with dspace?

Could you enable logging on the server and see if that comes up with
anything interesting? (Enable log_statement in postgresql.conf and
restart the server making sure the output is going somewhere other than
/dev/null)

What do you get from the results of the following queries when run in
psql?

SELECT version();

SELECT pg_encoding_to_char(1);

SELECT getdatabaseencoding();
