Hmm.  ISTM the value of preparing a utility statement like begin/commit/
rollback would be minuscule at best.  Is there a reason for not just
issuing those as plain queries?

The latest driver will do that as well, but in two statements now that 
transaction end doesn't automatically start a new one immediately.  The 
difference is that the server doesn't log it for the 8.0 driver because 
it prepares the begin/commit/rollback statements just once and executes 
them from then on.

I think older versions of the JDBC driver will do that behind your back
... try the latest driver, and if you still see it then inquire on
pgsql-jdbc.

Looks like the application is aborting its transaction (rollback)
and starting a new one (begin).  If you're not doing this explicitly
then the API is probably doing it under the hood.  If you're logging
queries then you should be able to figure out where this is happening
in the application.

[GENERAL] lots of puzzling log messages

2005-04-19 Thread Dennis Sacks
I am Seeing twelve of these messages every five to ten seconds in the 
Postgresql serverlog when my java application is running:

2005-04-19 16:43:03 LOG:  0: duration: 0.246 ms
LOCATION:  exec_simple_query, postgres.c:960
2005-04-19 16:43:03 LOG:  0: statement: rollback; begin;
LOCATION:  pg_parse_query, postgres.c:464
postgresql.conf has:
log_connections = true
log_duration = true
log_statement = true
log_timestamp = true
Running  postgres 7.4.2.
The Java application uses postgresql-7.4.1.jar. It is a custom developed 
application.

I am wondering what these log messages mean. Any ideas?
Dennis
