Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: Is it OK to ad_script_abort inside a db_transaction?

I don't think you've been having dreams. :)

I don't know if there's a hard and fast rule, but I think the preferred method is to use "db_abort_transaction" within a db_transaction block to abort instead of ad_script abort.

This will abort all levels of a transaction.

Read here under the Basic API (db_transaction) section:
