Hmm.  What do you see in the postmaster log when this happens?

BTW, you *really* should update to 7.2.4.  There are nasty bugs in
7.2.1.  There's not enough info here to guess whether you are hitting
a known bug, though.

[This is clearly a Debian system.]
You seem to have done a partial upgrade to testing; the effect will be
that you have two versions of the libpq library, and python-pygresql
will not be using the same one as pgsql.  It looks as though I made the
dependencies too loose in that testing release.

 In my application, which is written in python, I get a server closed the
 connection unexpectedly exception after executing a few sql commands. I
 print each query before I execute it (debugging) so I tried executing the
 queries through psql with no problems. 
 
 Is there a known incompatibility between the versions of client/server that
 I'm using? Or a known bug in pygresql? 

I suggest you upgrade to the version from unstable (7.3.4-5).  Testing
is held up and isn't getting timely upgrades; I would not, myself,
consider it as good as unstable until we get very close to a new Debian
release.

Unstable has versioned python packages.  If you want woody versions of
the postgresql packages, you can get them with this apt line:
