Error Database is Locked Code 5<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The error occurs mainly when a user executes two inappropriate transactions in any database against the same connection.<\/p>\n<p>This Error message communicates that an identical process can&#8217;t complete due to conflict with the transaction utilizing the same database connection or a separate database connection working on a shared cache.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Some_Scenarios_for_SQLite_Database_is_Locked_Error_Code_5\"><\/span>Some Scenarios for SQLite Database is Locked Error Code 5<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Being a lightweight database, SQLite can&#8217;t handle a high level of concurrency.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Here are a few such instances:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Using a table to write where the SELECT operation is already active.<\/li>\n<li>You are trying to perform two SELECT operations on the same table at the same time in a multi-thread application.<\/li>\n<li>Using DROP or CREATE on an index or a table, while the SELECT statement is pending. The reason being Sqlite3_() returns the value SQLITE_DONE after the SELECT statement operates. Until Sqlite3_reset() or Sqlite3_finalize() are called the SELECT statement is not complete.<\/li>\n<li>An NFS locking issue may generate the error too.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ways_to_Fix_SQLite_error_Database_is_locked_code_5\"><\/span>Ways to Fix SQLite error Database is locked code 5<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One of the best ways to resolve this error is to create a database backup having no locks on it and replace the original with its backup copy.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_1_Creating_a_new_Backup_with_no_locks\"><\/span>Method 1: Creating a new Backup with no locks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><em><strong>Note:<\/strong> Here <\/em><strong><em>x.Sqlite<\/em><\/strong><em> is the database file.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>$<strong>Sqlite3<\/strong> <strong>.x.Sqlite<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sqlite&gt; <strong>.backup main backup .Sqlite<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sqlite&gt; <strong>.exit<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now in the same directory, save the file backup. Here we are replacing the old locked up database file with the new unlocked copy of it.

(A scenario in which each thread is waiting for a resource while holding a resource needed by the other thread)<\/p>\n<p>To resolve this issue, SQLite has a lock time out. If it finds out that a thread has been waiting for a lock for more than the default time of 5 seconds, the process terminates, and we face the dreaded SQLite DB is locked error.<\/p>\n<p>To fix this error, you can increase the timeout value from the timeout database option.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Fix_to_Automatically_Resolve_the_SQLite_Error\"><\/span>Best Fix to Automatically Resolve the SQLite Error<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The manual methods are a bit tricky to follow through and sometimes may fail to fix the issue entirely.
