Backport to 2.29.x: #10313: Allow ALTER EXTENSION UPDATE inside a transaction block - #10330
Merged
Conversation
Opening a transaction with BEGIN or START TRANSACTION used to load the extension. That made ALTER EXTENSION timescaledb UPDATE fail inside a transaction block because the old version was already loaded before the update ran. The loader now skips loading on BEGIN and START TRANSACTION, so the update can run as the first extension command in the transaction. (cherry picked from commit 44da962)

Original description
Allow ALTER EXTENSION UPDATE inside a transaction block
Opening a transaction with BEGIN or START TRANSACTION used to load the
extension. That made ALTER EXTENSION timescaledb UPDATE fail inside a
transaction block because the old version was already loaded before the
update ran.
The loader now skips loading on BEGIN and START TRANSACTION, so the
update can run as the first extension command in the transaction.
