Below is logging information from a client-side SQL monitor, as well as what
I found in <posgresqlhome>/data/serverlog:
I this particular instance the offending quote is in the problem_desc field.
The value of problem_desc being "Bob's Problem" (double quotes excluded).
*** Client-Side SQL monitor data ***
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ COMMITTED;SET DATESTYLE TO ISO;BEGIN;
insert into "rmas"
("id", "company_id", "repair_types_id", "printer_models_id",
"serial_number", "problem_desc")
values
(1240916, 126, 3, 595, '45845384568', 'Bob''s Problem')
Command executed sucessfully
1 row(s) affected

SELECT send_rma(rma_info) FROM rma_info WHERE rma = 1240916
server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
