Any specific reason you're using pgoledb from C#? You will likely get
much better results using the native npgsql driver.

It's been my experience that you often get this kind of unhelpful error
messages from the oledb layer regardless of what db you're using - I see
it all the time with the sqlserver and AD providers. Never really found
a good way to deal with it :( So if you can change, I very much
recommend you look at npgsql.
