> The problem is that I have a transaction that deletes all the records in a group and inserts the new records for that group. If that transaction is called from 2 different clients for the same groupid it happens to get a duplicate key violation which it should never happen on my opinion!!!!!!!!
On what is that opinion based? Considering the situation you describe, I
would expect it to error every time you try to run that same script twice
in parallel.
Perhaps you want to take an exclusive lock on the table? The operation
you describe seems to suggest that you'd want to guarantee exclusive
write access to the table.
