Deadlock removal

Hi,
I have somehow managed to lock a row in one of my database tables, and I am now unable to unlock that row.

I have tried using the ROLLBACK command, but get a notice: NO TRANSACTION IN PROGRESS. However, when I try to update or delete the record, the query never executes, and I have to cancel it manually, at which point I get the error: QUERY CANCEL REQUESTED WHILE WAITING LOCK.

Anybody know how I can simply get rid of this lock?

Thanks,
Stephen.

joining column's datatypes do not match

A lock can only be held by a running transaction. Therefore, to release
the lock for sure, terminate all other running transactions.

I have a deadlock that's happening on one oracle instance but cannot be reproduced on any other. It is always caused by the same SQL statement colliding with itself and only happens under very high load. The statement is DELETE from userlogins WHERE numlogins <= 0 the schema for the userlogins table is

I want to set an alert for a specific table whenever an event has caused a deadlock to occur on the table. I understand how to set up an alert. But I don't know which error number to use for the New Alert error number property for a deadlock. Or how to specify a deadlock on a specific table. Thanks, DW

Here's a really weird one for any SQL Server gurus out there... We have observed (SQL Server 2000) scenarios where a stored procedure which (a) begins a transaction (b) inserts some rows into a table (c) re-queries another table using a subquery which references the inserted table (correlated or not)

Hi There, I'm getting a deadlock when I have two clients running the following statement. DELETE FROM intermediate.file_os_details WHERE file_uid = ? AND obj_uid There is a compound index on file_uid / obj_uid. The isolation level is UR and I have set DB2_RR_TO_RS=YES. Any thoughts why I'm getting the deadlock ?

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- We ran into some very strange deadlocks this AM, and I was hoping to get some insight. We were running a REORGCHK on a database, and started getting deadlocks. What is curious is that according to the deadlock event monitor, the deadlock was between the REORGCHK process and another client attempting a SQL execution, and the Prepare was requesting an Exclusive lock. Is that normal? Maybe I'm reading the monitor output...

Hi, The bigger my C# web-application gets, the more places I need to put in the tedious retrying block of code to make sure operations that can run into database deadlocks are re-run (retried) 3-4 times and give up if after that it's still in deadlock. I'm very sure that many experienced people out there already deal with this issue somehow. Is there an alternative to it? Thanks for your comments and suggestions.

Hi First a simple question ... I have a table "access_log" that has foreign keys "app_id" and "app_user_id" that reference the "application_type" and "app_user" tables. When I insert into "access_log", the referential integrity triggers generate these queries: SELECT 1 FROM ONLY "public"."application_type" x

Hi , I am trying to acquire a lock on a table A in exclusive mode, and this statement gives an error indicating a deadlock or timeout has been detected. The lock timeout value is set to 0 which I understand is to wait for however long it takes to acquire a lock. Also there are other processes that have acquired row level exclusive locks on the table A when this error happened.Is DB2 throwing this error as a pre-emptive measure.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

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,...
