Someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure all you have to do
is start a transaction. Example:

begin;
create table t1 (col1 varchar(10));
insert into t1 (col1) values ('test123');
rollback;

  Subject: How to set "auto commit" off in postgresql db?


  Hi:

  It seems to me that postgresql db's default set for commit is "on". I
would like to set it to "off". How could I do that?

  TIA.
  ----------
  Here is what I got when testing:

  webstore=> create table t1 (col1 varchar(10));

  CREATE

  webstore=> insert into t1 (col1) values ('test123');

  INSERT 1006769 1

  webstore=> select * from t1;

  col1

  ---------

  test123

  (1 row)

  webstore=> rollback;

  NOTICE: ROLLBACK: no transaction in progress

  ROLLBACK

  webstore=> select * from t1;

  col1

  ---------

  test123

  (1 row)
