Transaction roll back not working in Postgresql

php-pgsql, phppgadmin, postgresql, postgresql-9.1, sql

Solution

in postgresql you cannot write commit or roll back explicitly within a function. I think you could have use a begin end block just write it simple

BEGIN;
   insert into tst_table values ('ABC');
   Begin
    insert into 2nd_table values ('ABC');
   EXCEPTION
    when your_exception then
    ROLL BACK;
   END;
END;

Problem

I am working on PostgreSQL 9.1.4 . I am inserting the data into 2 tables its working nicely. I wish to apply transaction for my tables both table exist in same DB. If my 2nd table going fail on any moment that time my 1 st table should be rollback. I tried the properties in "max_prepared_transactions" to a non zero value in `/etc/postgres/postgres.conf`. But Still Transaction roll back is not working.
