Help: Detecting locks?

Hi,

I'm writing a program (using mysql++) where I want users to be able to
lock a row while they are editing it. My problem is I don't know how
the 2nd user can detect the lock vs it looking like a failed query.

I have innodb_lock_wai t_timeout set to 1 second, which works fine, but
mysql returns two errors when I try to update:

ERROR 1205 (HY000): Lock wait timeout exceeded....
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax....

Unfortunately, as far as I know, I can only get the *last* error from
the query which is 1064 - bad syntax. Since the 1064 overwrites the
1205 error, I can't differentiate the two.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Mike

I am not very good at SQL, much less T-SQL. Please forgive my ignorance in this area. Can someone supply me with the necessary T-SQL to perform the following task: 1) I have a table called "dbo.Locks". 2) That table has a column titled Timestamp with a type of datetime. 3) I want to delete rows from the Locks table that have a datetime value of more than 1 minute old.

Help! I have a table that multiple processes must be able to write to concurrently. However, it for some reason gets locked in exclusive mode. I narrowed it down to one SQL statement + some weirdness with foreign keys. To debug this, I opened two psql sessions and typed in the sql statements manually. Here is the situation: CREATE TABLE take2

DB2 v7.2 (FP7 - DB2 v7.1.0.68) on AIX 5.2.0.0. We're seeing unexpected single row (then commit) insert locking behaviour. We're seeing Applications that already hold row-level W locks in lock-wait, waiting to acquire row-level X locks. The lock-waits are behind applications that have row-level X locks on different rows (honestly). Both executing and lock-waiting applications have been granted IX table locks.

Hello all, we are running a delphi application with DB2 V8.01 which is causing deadlocks when rows are being inserted into a table. Attaching the Event Monitor Log (DEADLOCKS WITH DETAILS) here. From the log it looks like the problem happens when 2 threads insert 1 record each in the same table and then try to aquire a NS (Next Key Share) lock on the record inserterd by the other thread. Thanks Rohit

Hi there, We have a web application handling thousands of requests per seconds reading sql server data which is heavily updated. We are generally experiencing no performance problems.

I'm having problem with using DAO recordset to append record into a table and subsequent code to update other tables in a transaction. The MDB is Access 2000 with the latest service pack of JET 4. The system is client/server, multiusers based. The MDBs are using record locking. Here is part of the code: Dim wkSpace As Workspace, db As Database Dim rstTrans As DAO.Recordset Set wkSpace = DBEngine.Workspaces(0)

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
