This includes procedures that are called from within an exception block. Yeah. Postgres doesn't have autonomous transactions (not yet anyway), and you can't fake them like that. A way that does work, I believe, is to set up a second session with dblink[1] and use that to issue the autonomous transaction. Ugly and inefficient for sure, but if you've gotta have it... regards, tom lane [1] https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/dblink.html
