When POSTing to a feature type resource the are two possible actions:
- configuration of a existing table
- if the table does not exists, it's possible to create it, but in this case
  the list of attributes has to be provided

The stack trace shows you're falling in the second case, that is, the
table that you're trying to configure is not known to GeoServer.
There could be various motivations, for example:
- the table is in a schema other than the one configured in the store
- the table is not readable by the user that you use to connect
- the name of the table is using the wrong case (GeoServer uses
  quotes around the name to have all table and attribute names
  case be mantained, as all OGC services are case sensitive)

Cheers
