Hello all, Is it possible to prevent Postgre from aborting the transaction upon a constraint violation? Using JDBC if I catch the constraint violation and try another statement I get: /ERROR: current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end of transaction block/ I realize that I could set a save-point before every INSERT but that nearly doubles the processing time. Since our application INSERTS many thousands of rows at a time we need maximum efficiency. On Mysql (where this limitation doesn't exist) it's already only barely fast enough. If we have to use savepoints with Postgre it might prevent us from making the switch. Is there some mode flag I could set, either database or server wide? I've found Postgre to be wonderfully configurable so I'm crossing my fingers... Much Thanks. - Adam Videx Inc. 1105 N. E.
