Postgres error: portal "C_n" does not exist

Viewed 845

I've been trying to track down a postgres error log that came from a legacy Java application and I'm having difficulty understanding this error message (where n is a number)

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: portal "C_n" does not exist

From what I've read online it has something to do with a cursor although on initial review I do not see a cursor being used.

Can someone shed some light on what the error means and why it would occur?

For background context, I've identified that suspect code does the following

  1. Starts at transaction
  2. Queries the DB for a single item (select * from blah limit 1) (error is thrown here)
