Any method called directly through the web (e.g. like this one, which I assume is through an HTTP POST) will be bounded in a transaction. Why would you not want this to happen?

Hi,

answering to myself, cause nobody else could find the reason in the code I provided, because I didn't include the real culprit. Here is the very much abreviatet version, which also generates a transaction:

def workform(self,REQUEST): "Die Masken EinAusgabe" self.form=REQUEST.form <-- this does it return "this generated a transaction"

So don't modify the "self" of an external method.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
