This is perfectly harmless from a data integrity point of view, it is just an error
message that the user gets when he or she tries to insert a row whose primary key
already exists in the table:

test=> CREATE TABLE test (id integer PRIMARY KEY, val text);
CREATE TABLE
test=> INSERT INTO test VALUES (1, 'one');
INSERT 0 1
test=> INSERT INTO test VALUES (2, 'one');
INSERT 0 1
test=> INSERT INTO test VALUES (1, 'two');
ERROR:  duplicate key value violates unique constraint "test_pkey"
DETAIL:  Key (id)=(1) already exists.

If you don't want user errors to be logged in the server log, you can
increase "log_min_messages" to "log".

Yours,
