Jira (PDB-157) Postgresql: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0x00

Title: Message Title

Christian Berg commented on an issue   Re: Postgresql: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0x00 I'm having the same issue running PuppetDB 2.0. It occurs when the value of a custom fact contains the Null character (\u0000). We fixed the custom fact, but there are thousands of messages going through the retry loop. I'm not sure if this can or should be addressed in PuppetDB (e.g. by not doing retries for this sort of Exception). A nice enhancement would be to give up on retries for a 'replace facts' command as soon as a new 'replace facts' command for the same host is processed.
