The "type" field is an array type because of the square brackets after
the data type.
"type" character varying[] NOT NULL
The INSERT is not inserting the VALUES for an array correctly. To get
back to my original question, what driver are you using? If it is the
native SDBC one it does not know about arrays and is probably the cause
of the problem.
