Hi Babis,

Thanks for that link!  Unfortunately, I think I'm seeing a different problem, since I'm not actually doing any DDL.  I found that the SQL state I'm getting is 2D000, which seems to correspond to an error in calling mvc_commit().  Time to debug!

Thank You,
Percy

Hi Percy,

we had a similar problem with prepared statements in the past and
since I saw in your bug report that the problem occurs when you are
using prepared statements, then it might be related to yours. The
problem was that we were creating a prepared statement, then doing an
update on the database schema, and then executing the prepared
statement. The second step (the update of the database schema) drops
any identifiers created for keeping references to prepared statements.

The answer of Fabian to this may be found at

Hope that helps,
Babis
