Hi,

I'm using PostgreSQL 8.2 and my production server is based on CentOS release
5.2 (Final).

JDBC Jar: postgresql-8.2-508.jdbc4.jar

I noticed from my server log that some INSERT statements are failing with
"invalid message format" PSQLException.  Once this exception is thrown, it
is not committed to the database.  What could be the reason for this?

EXCEPTION
org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: invalid message format

I also read about this on:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-jdbc/2008-04/msg00085.php
    "JDBC driver is doing something wrong when calculating a message
length or message content for the frontend/backend protocol"
    But how do I resolve this issue?

    you can't represent a \0 byte in a text/varchar constant

Even though I don't have much idea on encoding, I have a little doubt on
whether encoding is a problem.
