I'm fairly new to Apex development and have a question on triggers and batch processes.

I have an AFTER INSERT trigger on Object A that executes a batch process, say, Batch 1.

Batch 1 builds an Object B record and inserts it.

Object B has an AFTER INSERT trigger that executes a batch process, say, Batch 2.

Batch 2 builds an Object C record and inserts it.

I'm receiving a "System.AsyncException: Database.executeBatch cannot be called from a batch or future method." error on Batch 2.

I'm assuming this is because Batch 1 hasn't completed before Batch 2 fires off?

Thanks,

Aaron
