[Bug 746620] Re: serialized transaction architecture flaw PLEASE COLLABORATE

 

Alternate Approcahes

    An alternate approach to the problem could be by the use of transactions which allow dirty read (Read uncommitted transaction data) exclusively for the get_id method of the sequence. This would however have the same disadvantage and a higher cost.
    An even better approach would be to ensure that there are no long running transactions in the programs you write.

Title:
  serialized transaction architecture flaw PLEASE COLLABORATE

Status in OpenERP Server:
  New

Bug description:
  OpenERP is classified as an Enterprise class software package. Meaning
  that more than one person, at least 2 should be able to use the system
  simultaneously. Like packers shipping products, taking orders,
  reserving products. I find that in fact, it is not possible for
  creation of stock moves simultaneously.

   Say I am importing orders from a shop. It is creating stock moves  because the order is paid. 
  At the same time I am shipping products which is normal for an ERP system.
  I might also import orders from a separate shop say a POS system.
  It is not possible!
  [2011-03-31 13:10:47,657][midwestsupplies] WARNING:stock.location:Failed attempt to reserve 1.0 x product 1669, li
  kely due to another transaction already in progress. Next attempt is likely to work. Detailed error available at D
  EBUG level.  
  OperationalError: could not obtain lock on row in relation "ir_sequence"
  Two different errors.
  I  can only perform one action at a time!
  What happens is that any time the program calls for a stock_move it will lock the stock_move table so no other process can access it which means that you cant do hardly anything unless its done individually. Now say with a MS system, or any Enterprise system would be able to handle many simultaneous actions but this program has a serious architecture flaw to not be able to support this.
