It took some digging but I've found a very simple fix to this.
Somewhere (sorry, can't find it again) I read that a postgresql cursor is sometimes referenced as "portal". This was when I was still pretty sure that this was a psycopg2 issue.
Further testing ruled that out--I wasn't getting the error on the psycopg2 commit statements, I was getting the error when the plpython3u function itself exits and tries to commit.
I only use one plpython3u cursor in that function. The plpython docs say:
"Cursors are automatically disposed of. But if you want to
explicitly release all resources held by a cursor, use the close
method. Once closed, a cursor
cannot be fetched from anymore."
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/15/plpython-database.html#id-1.8.11.14.3
Perhaps "pinned" in the error message means "open"?
I added a cursor.close() as the last line called in that function and it works again.
I haven't been able to come up with a test case that throws the
same error, though, so I consider this a solution to what is very
likely an odd corner case.
