ecpg implicitly runs everything inside transactions. You don't need to
run START TRANSACTION, that's implicit. Therefore the "set search_path"
command is in fact run in the same transaction as the failing insert, as
also hinted by the warning "there is already a transaction in progress"
at the START TRANSACTION command.
You could use -t, or add a COMMIT after the "set search_path".
