Um, possibly not, if you're using connection-pooling software ... and even if you're not, I think closing the connection is asynchronous; it'd be possible to establish a new connection before the old one has terminated and released its locks. Rather than closing the connection, I think you need to do something explicit to commit your transaction. regards, tom lane
