Hi Tom, The driver currently doesn't report back to the calling client (tm) XAException.XAER_NOTA code as Ondrej and Tom Jenkinson have identified. Instead it returns XAException.XAER_RMERR. See line 416
https://github.com/pgjdbc/pgjdbc/blob/master/org/postgresql/xa/PGXAConnection.java#416 which imo is used for general errors in the resource manager. I've written a test case that can be pulled into the pgjdbc testsuite that will make verifying this error easier. It is based on the example code Tom Jenkinson provided. A pull request has been created which can be found here... https://github.com/pgjdbc/pgjdbc/pull/73 I am currently coding up a change to the driver in anticipation there is agreement in the pgjdbc group to change the rollback method. Another pull request will be created for that. Let's see what discussion and decision is made by the more active members in pgjdbc.
