The other strange thing is:

ERROR: missing data for column "fpp_cde"
CONTEXT: COPY audit, line 2565159: "4585427 21~21~21 5143 0 2013-12-01
15:03:18.336718 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>\r\n<nonF..."
STATEMENT: COPY audit (aud_id, grp_cde, act_typ, aud_ver, usr_id,
aud_device_id, aud_ts, aud_xml,

aud_id 4585427
grp_code 21~21~21
act_type 5143
aud_ver 0
usr_id 2013-12-01 15:03:18.336718 ???? Is this not aud_ts?
aud_device_id <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>\r\n<nonF... ?????
Is this not aud_xml?

Which begs the question where did usr_id and aud_device_id go?
