Do you mean libpq? Are you coding in C?

As the error says: a transaction had already been started when the
application tried to start another one. Can you post a simple but
complete program that demonstrates this behavior when you think it
shouldn't? You could also enable statement logging on the server
to see everything the application is executing.

Server-side autocommit existed only in 7.3. What version of libpq
are you using, and what version of the server?
