Trust me, Paolo, I would very much more like to be the harbinger of success and confidence in QGIS Server. 
But in 5-6 years, ”following the instructions carefully” has never worked. Once or twice, I have succeeded after much trial an error, on Windows machines. Linux was supposed to be better. So I decided to give that a try. 
And I had no problems setting up PostGIS and Geoserver on this Ubuntu machine, by following the instructions. Starting from scratch is not a tempting option.
