Hi Serge,
Thank you for your reply. Basically, my SPL is doing an
insert/update into multiple tables, and when an error arise,
I'm trapping (inserting) all the error information like SQLCODE,
Table Name, SPL name, etc into ERROR table. When there are a lot
of errors inserting into the error table, the table is locked.
And no one can issue a SELECT or DELETE statement on the table.
I tried to issue a COMMIT; right after the INSERT statement hoping
that it will commit each row it inserts, so that other people can
do a simple select statement or delete, but that does not seem to
work. The original code is very long and complicated, but the below
is a basic outline of what's going on. What am I missing ? :)
Thank you
Here is an example :
-------------
CREATE PROCEDURE ..
BEGIN
DECLARE ..
DECLARE ..
DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR SQLEXCEPTION
BEGIN
INSERT INTO db2.errors (...)
VALUES ( .. );
END;
UPDATE..
INSERT..
.
.
.
END
-------------

Well, that still doesn't explain why yoru commit fails....
Anyway to log errors I would use a different approach.
DB2 supporrts DECLARE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE (DGTT).
DGTT can be defined as ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS and (in V8.2) ON ROLLBACK
PRESERVE ROWS. This makes them great candidates for logging of errors
since they are not transactional.
When your procedure is done you can then move th4 data to a regular
table in one fast insert from subselect operation.
Cheers

Can you just post the exact error number?

You keep refering to "SPL". SP I can figure out... but what is the "L" for?
