Yes, that's right. As soon as something goes wrong in the transaction it's assumed that, unless you handle the error, the transaction is bad and shouldn't be committed. You can use savepoints (see the manual) to recover from errors, though they have some issues if you use hundreds of thousands of savepoints in a single transaction. It's much better to check the data on INSERT to make sure it's OK. You can do this with an INSERT ... SELECT (and check the rowcount), with a PL/PgSQL function that returns a result value, do it client-side, etc. -- Craig Ringer -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
