[firebird-support] php transactions
I have an application I'm developing with PHP & Firebird. While it mostly works fine - I've been having what I believe to be transaction issues. One problem was visibility - committed changes were not visible to selects. I know they were committed - after executing the commit within the scripts, I could see the changes within FlameRobin. Yet the script didn't see them. I also saw the "oldest active transaction" getting old...and it didn't seem to update until I killed some of the longer-running php processes. I use explicit transactions for every insert or update followed by explicit commits. Could my problem be that I need to use explicit transactions for the selects as well? -- Daniel

Nice to see a new PHP user Daniel we do have a list for firebird-php http://groups.yahoo.com/group/firebird-php/http://groups.yahoo.com/group/firebird-php/ The default settings for a firebird connection are not ideal, I use adodb for all my database interfacing and that sets the default to $this->ibasetrans = IBASE_WAIT | IBASE_REC_VERSION | IBASE_COMMITTED; http://adodb.org is worth a look if you are doing anything heavy or cross database. Re using commit or rollback - any uncommitted stuff simply gets rolled back. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL - Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk

If you have a long running PHP process which does lots of selects and never does a commit it'll quite likely all be in one transaction which can produce the symptoms you describe. -- Tim Ward
