However, this causes a problem whenever I have an unhandled exception. At the bottom of django/db/__init__.py, django connects _rollback_on_exception() to the got_request_exception signal. This means that on every request exception, transaction.rollback_unless_managed() is called which fails. Note: I'm not importing the db module, but other django modules seem to do it. I think the solution is to not hook up the callback if the dummy engine is in use." closed Database layer (models, ORM) dev fixed Accepted 0 0 0 0 0 0
