SQLITE_E_ABORT_ROLLBACK

SQLITE_E_ABORT_ROLLBACK is the extended SQLite abort result returned when another operation rolls back the transaction containing an active statement.

What to check for SQLITE_E_ABORT_ROLLBACK

  • Find the code path that issued ROLLBACK or caused the transaction to fail before the active statement completed.
  • Keep transaction ownership clear; unrelated request handlers should not share a transaction or connection without synchronization.
  • Retry only after rebuilding the transaction from a known-safe application state.
