At the end it says:

I do not understand what it means in the end, by position 6 ?
I have tried to count the parameters and all, and they all match. I do not see any discrepancies.
I have tried to count the parameters, match the types and all and it all checks out. What do I have wrong here?

Answer 1

Good luck with finding someone who is ready to dig through tons of parameters.
My advice: avoid character varying or any other non-preferred type in function arguments. Use preferred types, because they facilitate type resolution:
SELECT typname, typcategory FROM pg_type WHERE typispreferred;
typname │ typcategory
═════════════╪═════════════
bool │ B
text │ S
oid │ N
float8 │ N
inet │ I
timestamptz │ D
interval │ T
varbit │ V
(8 rows)
The exception is probably with the numeric types, as you don't want to use double precision there. There, it is best to use types that can be cast to implicitly, so prefer the right-hand types over the left-hand types in the following list:
SELECT c.castsource::regtype, c.casttarget::regtype
FROM pg_cast AS c
JOIN pg_type AS t1 ON c.castsource = t1.oid
JOIN pg_type AS t2 ON c.casttarget = t2.oid
WHERE t1.typcategory = 'N'
AND t2.typcategory = 'N'
AND c.castcontext = 'i'
AND t2.typname !~~ ALL ('{oid,reg%}');
castsource │ casttarget
════════════╪══════════════════
bigint │ real
bigint │ double precision
bigint │ numeric
smallint │ bigint
smallint │ integer
smallint │ real
smallint │ double precision
smallint │ numeric
integer │ bigint
integer │ real
integer │ double precision
integer │ numeric
real │ double precision
numeric │ real
numeric │ double precision
numeric │ numeric
(16 rows)
Since your main question seems to be the "position 6": that is the position in the SQL statement that is related to the error, so probably the procedure call:
CALL procname(tons_of_parameters);
