My script reads as follows : perform app_security.cleanSessionTable(p_forcedTimeout,p_sessionTimeout); select * into strict v_row from app_security.app_val_session_vw where session_id=p_session_id and session_ip=p_client_ip and session_user_agent=p_user_agent; update app_security.app_sessions set session_lastactive=v_now where session_id=p_session_id; Its the "select * into strict" that's causing me grief, not the "update", isn't it ?!? > > 2) Act and then ask for forgiveness. > > You can have more then one BEGIN/END block in plpgsql.

I thought it might be an option, but it was not too clear from the docs whether the sub-blocks were treated as seperate transactions when used within a function. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
