Kathey Marsden updated DERBY-3093: ---------------------------------- Fix Version/s: 10.3.1.5 > Intermittent transaction failure caused by internal duplicate savepoint name > for triggers > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-3093 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3093 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Bug > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 10.1.3.1, 10.2.2.0, 10.3.1.4 > Environment: Java 1.6.0_02 > Reporter: Jim Newsham > Assignee: James F. Adams > Fix For: 10.3.1.5, 10.4.0.0 > > Attachments: derby-3093-2_diff.txt, derby-3093-3_diff.txt, > derby-3093_diff.txt > > > While running our app overnight, performing some intensive database > operations (primarily deletes), we experienced a transaction failure, with > error message "A SAVEPOINT with the passed name already exists in the current > transaction". This failure appears to be very intermittent, as I've run the > same operation successfully for hours and hours without failure. Some more > information: > 1. I see that there are four JIRA issues which report the same message > (DERBY-2773, DERBY-1457, DERBY-2808, DERBY-2804). I am not sure to what > extent if any, the problem I experienced is related to these issues. > • At least three of the above JIRA issues are related to triggers. Our > transaction failure occurred while performing a delete in a table which has > delete triggers. > • We aren't using savepoints explicitly. Of course, it can be seen in > the stack trace that the trigger operation is setting a savepoint. > • One of the JIRA issues mentions exceeding maximum depth of nested > triggers. Not sure what a nested trigger is, but the trigger we are > performing should not (in theory) cause another trigger event. > 2.

Here are the relevant tables and triggers. We have different tables for > different "sample" data types in our application (currently int, long, > float, double, Boolean, string). I have shown the int_sample table; the > other tables are identical but have a different data type for the value > field. > Sample records are first class; time records are second class - they only > exist to support sample records. When there are no remaining sample records > for a given time record, the time record can be removed. It is the job of > the trigger to perform this cleanup: when a record is deleted from any of > the sample tables, the time record corresponding to *_sample.fk_time_id is > deleted only if there are no remaining records in any of the sample tables > which have the same fk_time_id. So although there are cascading deletes > (deleting a time record deletes all of its samples), the trigger should not > recurse because the trigger only deletes when there are no associated records. > > create table time ( > id int not null generated always as identity, > time timestamp not null, > constraint time_pk primary key (id), > constraint time_unique unique (time) > ); > create table int_sample ( > fk_band_id int not null, > fk_time_id int not null, > value int not null, > constraint int_sample_pk primary key (fk_band_id, fk_time_id), > constraint int_sample_fk_band foreign key (fk_band_id) references band (id) > on delete cascade, > constraint int_sample_fk_time foreign key (fk_time_id) references time (id) > on delete cascade > ); > create trigger cascade_delete_unused_time_for_int_sample_trigger > after delete on int_sample > referencing old as oldrow > for each row > delete from time where > time.id = oldrow.fk_time_id > and id not in (select fk_time_id from int_sample) > and id not in (select fk_time_id from long_sample) > and id not in (select fk_time_id from float_sample) > and id not in (select fk_time_id from double_sample) > and id not in (select fk_time_id from boolean_sample) > and id not in (select fk_time_id from string_sample); > 4. Invocation. This is very rough pseudocode focusing on the core logic. > In reality, there's a lot more code, but I'm doing the usual stuff, such as > using prepared statements, and closing all resources when done. The key > thing is that I'm using two statements in a nested fashion; in the outer > statement, I iterate over records in the time table, and in the inner loop I > use a second statement to delete records in one of the sample tables. I can > provide the actual code if desired. > deleteSamples(int bandId, String sampleTable, Object someQueryCriteria) { > within transaction { > create stmt1 iterating over time ids in time table (restricted by > someQueryCriteria) > for (time_id in stmt1) { > PreparedStatement stmt2 = conn.prepareStatement(String.format( > "delete from %s where fk_band_id = ? and fk_time_id = ?", > sampleTable)); > set stmt2 parameters and executeUpdate() > } > } > } -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
