Обсуждение: PG/DBI: 'NOTICE: UserAbortTransactionBlock and not in in-progress state'

Hi,

I am using PG 6.5.1 and DBI. My Perl programs always print to stderr:

"NOTICE: UserAbortTransactionBlock and not in in-progress state" or
"NOTICE: EndTransactionBlock and not inprogress/abort state"

I tried to do <stmthandle> -> finish and <dbhandle> -> commit after each
query, but the messages still appear.

Any hints?

Thanks,

Markus

I think that happens if the backend aborted (elogged) with an ERROR
message and you did not start a new transaction.  ERROR kills the current
transaction altogether in 6.5.*, IIRC.

I think you're doing too much rather than too little.  Those notices
suggest that you're sending out an extra ABORT or COMMIT command after
the transaction's already been aborted/committed.

IIRC, DBI has an autocommit feature that sends out COMMITs for you.
If you have that turned on, *and* you are explicitly committing, then
that's probably the cause of the extra commits.  Get rid of one or
the other.
