[GENERAL] Cannot commit when autoCommit is enabled error

[Gurkan Ozfidan]

Dear group,
We have been using postgresql-jdbc-8.3-604, and recently we started using
postgresql-jdbc-9.2, everything seems working fine, except we are getting
this error and could not find the solution yet. This related to our
reporting and I could say that it is not happening every report we run. If
you could help, I really appreciated.
Below is the part of the code and error that we are getting. Thanks.

ERROR:
ERROR in createReportTable(): Cannot commit when autoCommit is enabled.
org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: Cannot commit when autoCommit is enabled.
