Comment 72 for bug 1198465

I pushed a fix to the collab branch to repair batch fine generation (via fine_generator.pl). The problem was introduced w/ latest fine generator commits.

Once that was done, fines generated as expected. However, one concern I have for batch/nightly fine generation is that in the new code, the commit does not occur until after all fines are generated. This could be a very long running transaction if run once a day, which could cause problems if other batch processes are accesses these transactions. I can push a patch that opens/closes a (db) transaction for each (ils) transaction processed if that sounds sane.
