I know the error 150 is related to foreign keys, but i can't figure out what wrong here.

The error occurs when i try to create tables Livre and Publication.
Types are the same so it doesn't seem to be the problem.
By mindful of the order in which you create the tables.
For instance, your table creation statement for Livre defines a foreign key on Editeur. But the table Editeur has not been created yet.
Adjust the create table statement ordering as required.

Why am I getting "there is no unique..." error in postgresql? How to solve it? Please help.
In your table exam_subjects the primary key is a compossed key (PRIMARY KEY(sub_id, exam_id))
Therefore, your table sub_questions must have both columns to create the constraint, otherwise you get the error about unique constraints (or you can create a unique field acting as primary key, and create a unique index on both columns sub_id and exam_id)
I keep getting a missing right or left parenthesis error when I try to create my tables with a foreign key, but when I remove the foreign key my code has no problem creating the tables. I need the code to run with the foreign keys.

The degree table is the only table where I don't get an error.
Should I use an alter table instead after I create all the tables or is there another way to solve my problem?
edit: updated code
I think your most immediate issue is with the Department table not having a comma between the two CONSTRAINT clauses. You might also run into issues with your Position table's CONSTRAINT clause referencing the Position table instead of the Employee table, although honestly I don't think you need that relationship defined at all since the Employee table already has a foreign key constraint with Position. And like what was stated earlier, your table definitions aren't in the right order so you have some tables referencing other tables before those others are created.
Give this a shot to see if the syntax works. I've added the column definition for the foreign key in Position, put parentheses around the foreign key column name in the CONSTRAINT clause, and removed the space between Department and the left paren in the CONSTRAINT clause. If this script works, make the same changes to your other table defs.
CREATE TABLE Department(
Dept_Name varchar(255) Primary Key, --primary key
Dept_Phone_Num numeric(35) not null
);
CREATE TABLE Position(
Position_Name varchar(255) not null Primary Key, --primary key
Position_Salary decimal(10, 2) not null,
Employee_num numeric(35) not null,
Dept_Name varchar(255) not null,
CONSTRAINT fk_Dept_Name FOREIGN KEY (Dept_Name) REFERENCES Department(Dept_Name) --foreign key
);

Could not create constraint or index. See previous errors.
Am I missing something obvious? I'm just starting out with using this program, so any help is greatly appreciated.
Here:
CREATE TABLE CONTNS

digi_id int not null,
phys_id int not null,
foreign key(digi_id) references BOOK_COPY(digi_id),
foreign key(phys_id) references BOOK_COPY(phys_id)
);
You are creating two foreign keys to parent table BOOK_COPY. But that table has a compound primary key (ie a multi-column primary key)
CREATE TABLE BOOK_COPY
(
digi_id int not null,
phys_id int not null,
primary key(digi_id, phys_id), --> here
...
)
As a consequence, you need a compound foreign key:
CREATE TABLE CONTNS
(
trans_id int not null primary key,
digi_id int not null,
phys_id int not null,
foreign key(digi_id, phys_id) references BOOK_COPY(digi_id, phys_id)
);

For MariaDB (and MySQL) the correct syntax for IDENTITY(1,1), is AUTO_INCREMENT, and CONSTRAINT names are not enclosed in (). Any column that is defined as AUTO_INCREMENT must also be declared as a PRIMARY KEY (this is only an issue with the project table). So your CREATE TABLE commands should look like this:
CREATE TABLE client (
id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
first_name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
last_name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
dob DATE NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id),

What did I do wrong? Thanks!
When you have multiple values in a primary key, you need to reference it differently as a foreign key.
Basically, when you say
FlightID char (20) REFERENCES Flight(FlightID) ON DELETE CASCADE,
PostgreSQL checks for that primary key, which doesn't exist (since the primary key on that table is (flightid, flightdate)).
So drop the REFERENCES clauses when referencing the flight table, and add
FOREIGN KEY (FlightID, FlightDate) REFERENCES Flight (FlightID, FlightDate)
In the manner you have in some of the other table definitions.
