## Mike Martin (redtux1@xxxxxxxxx): > Subject: Problem with commit in function You can't commit inside a FUNCTION - and there's an obvious ERROR if you try to do that: "invalid transaction termination". Only since version 11 you can use a PROCEDURE and COMMIT/ROLLBACK inside that - and the procedure must be written in PL/pgSQL (you don't get transaction control in SQL procedures - but beside the LANGUAGE marker, your code would be the same). See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-createprocedure.html https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/plpgsql-transactions.html > truncate table postgres_log_tmp ; You might want to look into temporary tables (perhaps even unlogged ones) - that will save you the hassle of truncating (temporary tables are even automatically removed), and with an unlogged temp table it will save you some WAL I/O. > --COMMIT; So, is this on or not? Oh, and please pay attention to the errors PostgreSQL throws at you - they're significant. Regards, Christoph -- Spare Space
