I'm betting that the error is in your script, although there are PG
versions quite a lot newer than that one (7.2.1 is current).

How do you specify 'not autocommit mode' within your script?

In my PHP programs I explicitly do a "BEGIN" when I want a transaction
to start, and a "COMMIT" when I want it to end (or "ROLLBACK", of
course).

If I don't use a BEGIN, then each statement will be committed straight
away. I am not attempting to turn off auto-commit at all, but
transaction scoping does work correctly. Perhaps you could work around
by leaving everything at it's defaults and explicitly scoping the
transaction?
