Any command that accesses the database (basically, any SQL command, except a few PRAGMA statements) will automatically start a transaction if one is not already in effect.

R-29897-28851-11131-17538-15635-12313-50588-15022 tcl slt th3 src
Such transactions usually persist until the next COMMIT or ROLLBACK command. But a transaction will also ROLLBACK if the database is closed or if an error occurs and the ROLLBACK conflict resolution algorithm is specified.

An attempt to invoke the BEGIN command within a transaction will fail with an error, regardless of whether the transaction was started by SAVEPOINT or a prior BEGIN.

R-46931-43245-47331-55287-00929-39790-16947-25937 tcl slt th3 src

R-11180-04229-25067-24122-45632-49442-37161-45101 tcl slt th3 src
Internally, the BEGIN DEFERRED statement merely sets a flag on the database connection that turns off the automatic commit that would normally occur when the last statement finishes.

R-40892-13487-22632-16999-05016-52970-57179-01588 tcl slt th3 src
An attempt to execute COMMIT might also result in an SQLITE_BUSY return code if an another thread or process has an open read connection.
/* IMP: R-40892-13487 */

When COMMIT fails in this way, the transaction remains active and the COMMIT can be retried later after the reader has had a chance to clear.

In more recent versions of SQLite, the ROLLBACK will proceed and pending statements will often be aborted, causing them to return an SQLITE_ABORT or SQLITE_ABORT_ROLLBACK error.

If certain kinds of errors occur within a transaction, the transaction may or may not be rolled back automatically. The errors that can cause an automatic rollback include:
- SQLITE_FULL: database or disk full
- SQLITE_IOERR: disk I/O error
- SQLITE_BUSY: database in use by another process
- SQLITE_NOMEM: out of memory
/* IMP: R-01531-37780 */
# EVIDENCE-OF: R-01531-37780 If certain kinds of errors occur within a # transaction, the transaction may or may not be rolled back # automatically.

R-15522-56042-47189-16162-53355-39499-48752-21999 tcl slt th3 src
For all of these errors, SQLite attempts to undo just the one statement it was working on and leave changes from prior statements within the same transaction intact and continue with the transaction.

However, depending on the statement being evaluated and the point at which the error occurs, it might be necessary for SQLite to rollback and cancel the entire transaction.

If the transaction has already been rolled back automatically by the error response, then the ROLLBACK command will fail with an error, but no harm is caused by this.
