My steps to install OpenNMS on RHEL 9 with no issues:
sudo dnf install langpacks-en glibc-all-langpacks -y
sudo localectl set-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8
sudo localectl
sudo dnf makecache
sudo dnf update -y
sudo reboot
sudo dnf info postgresql-server
sudo dnf install -y https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-9-x86_64/pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf install -y postgresql14-server
sudo /usr/pgsql-14/bin/postgresql-14-setup initdb
sudo systemctl enable --now postgresql-14
sudo systemctl status postgresql-14

FYI I linked this to so we can add PG15 to the supported database versions in the documentation.

this installation is not working. It will end up with errors in DB
Caused by: org.opennms.core.schema.MigrationException: OpenNMS requires a Unicode database. Please delete and recreate your
database and try again.
at org.opennms.core.schema.Migrator.checkUnicode(Migrator.java:587)
I suggest we will go with the installation of Postgres 14 instead of looking for workarounds.

We should add an info tab for the following error we faced in some Rocky9/RHEL9 repos.
In case of an error during DB initialization:
initdb: error: invalid locale settings; check LANG and LC_* environment variables
Commands to resolve the issue are:
sudo rm /etc/locale.conf
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/pgsql/data/log
logout
login
