Initial User Profile should be created transactionally. #10
Description
We really should be created the initial Profile and User in a single transaction. However, while OrientDB has some support for transactions, it's either incomplete or there's a bug somewhere in the chain this common use case. Therefore, the data is currently not created transactionally.
A question has been posted to the OrientDB google group and StackOverflow; to no avail. This, and also another problem where 'begin', 'rollback', and 'commit' seem to have no effect in the console whatsoever. The documentation is also a little confusing and in describing transactions seems to indicate that they aren't supported on remote connections at all, and then goes on to describe their support via optimistic locks.
However, it may end up getting fixed as part of something else and / or it may be a problem in the PHP client as well. We have also not exhausted all possible ideas on our side, so have not opened a bug as of yet.
