Robin Taylor commented on DS-383:
---------------------------------

Apologies for not providing a patch with this. I do think that the correct 
coding would be to change the context.commits scattered throughout the XMLUI to 
be context.completes, and then only have a context.abort in the filter that 
would close any stray connections eg if an Exception had occured. This is what 
happens in the JSPUI.  However, this is a risky change as it relies on having 
context.completes where they should be. If you don't mind waiting I'll do this 
on our local installation and add a patch once I'm confident it works ok.

> My understanding is that Dspace provides transactional processing by setting 
> the database connection to auto-commit=false and doing a 'commit' once all 
> processing has completed successfully. However, Manakin has a filter called  
> DSpaceCocoonServletFilter which contains the following code that runs after 
> the request has been passed on for further processing...
>    // Close out the DSpace context no matter what.
>         ContextUtil.closeContext(realRequest);
> This appears to run, commiting changes to the database, even if an Exception 
> is thrown in the main code.
> The code needs to be more intelligent and only do a commit to the database 
> where appropriate. The current catch-all approach causes problems in the 
> event of a failure and also prevents any sort of multiple items upload, eg 
> from a reference manager.
