I'm afraid this description of what you're trying to do is too vague to be useful. Maybe some sample code would help? TransactionManagementError is a symptom, not a cause. It means that a database error occurred inside a transaction, which leaves the transaction in an unpredictable state, so Postgres wants you to roll back the transaction (or roll back to a savepoint prior to the error) before issuing any more database queries. Possible solutions include: a) Figuring out why there was a database error, and fixing it so it doesn't occur. b) Wrapping the code that might cause a database error in its own `transaction.atomic` block, so on error that bit of code is rolled back and later queries within the same transaction can go forward. > I have implemented a workaround but not sure if it is the best way.

Again it's hard to tell without seeing code or traceback, but it sounds like probably what you've done here is fix the condition that was causing the error in the first place (that is, solution (a) above). It sounds like you were probably trying to do some related-model queries with an unsaved model, and now you've guarded those queries to only occur if the model is saved. If so, that's not a workaround, it's the best solution. >> I need the save() to complete so I can get_or_create some 1:1 records >> belonging to the model being saved. Again, sample code would really illuminate what you're trying to do. Carl -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
