I’ve noticed that in some cases a databaseManager.rollBackEditedRecords() deletes previously saved records ![:cry:]( "Crying or Very sad") Step 1) insert some new records (A) 2) databaseManager.saveData() 3) databaseManager.setAutoSave(false) 4) insert some new records (B) 5) databaseManager.rollBackEditedRecords() 6) databaseManager.setAutoSave(true) Records **A** and B are gone after step 6. No Servoy database transactions are active. Servoy Developer 5.2.2 Anyone seen this ? Regards, ---

Hi Lambert, My guess is that in step 2 the saveDate() returned false and the records where not saved. Do you always check for the result ? ---

Hi Robert, I went into debug mode : The saveData() of step 2 returns true, databaseManager.getEditedrecords() is empty after the save and I see the records (A) in the data SQL explorer (as it should after saveData()) ! After step 6 and refreshing the data SQL explorer the records (A) are gone… If I don’t use the rollbackEditedRecords() (step 5) everything is fine… Quite disturbing. It looks like the internal Servoy administration of edited records is not (yet ?) correctly updated. Regards, ---

That indeed doesn’t sound right. Can you file a case for this? Paul ---

Lambert, There must be something else going on, because databasemanager.rollbackEditedrecords() does not delete anything in the db, it just reverts changes made in memory. Rob ---

Hi Lambert, Can you check that after step 2 that when it returns true the newly created records are really in the back-end database ? ---

Hi Robert, Yes, they are present in de back-end database. I filed a case but I don’t have the time to isolate the problem into a sample solution. I rewrote my code now so that I don’t have to use the rollbackEditedRecords() in step 5 (first test and if ok then write is BTW always better) Thanks for thinking along with me. Regards, ---

Hi Lambert, Interesting…so they are in the database and then gets deleted. Are you sure you don’t use a DB transaction that you rollback ? Also check the statistics page in the Servoy admin pages to see if there is a delete.
