Please follow list-norms (and others behavior) and bottom-post.

"Enable Auto ROLLBACK" only makes sense if you are in transaction (not
auto-commit) mode. It makes it so that "transaction is aborted...." message
does not appear since as soon as you have an error the software issues a
ROLLBACK for you.

Still, unless you are constantly re-creating the tables in question whenever
you cause an error those tables should have been committed at some point.

I also do not know if that option is independent of the option to use
auto-commit...
