There is some wrong - pg can raise this message when detect some error
in conversion between client encoding and server encoding. But you
speaking so your client encoding and database encoding is same, and
this situation should not be possible. So you should to recheck your
client encoding and real input.
In old versions Postgres don't check UTF well, so it was possible to
store some strange chars, but it is not possible now.
