It means that you have an open transaction and the statement before you
get this message failed.
e.g.
postgres=# begin;
BEGIN
postgres=# update bob set abc=1;
ERROR: relation "bob" does not exist
postgres=# select version();
ERROR: current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end of
transaction block
postgres=#
You need to find which statement failed first and fix it or rollback and
have your app deal with the failure. The postgres log is a good place
to start looking.
