Dear MySql,

Using 5.0.41 I had a single innodb table which would not unlock. I wonder if this might be a bug, or an issue that is known to be fixed in later versions?

Any DML like this example:

  UPDATE ws_queue SET stage = 'committed' WHERE stage = 'running'

Would result in:

ERROR 1205 (HY000): Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting transaction

However there were no visible locks:

show open tables like 'ws_queue';
+-------------+------------------+--------+-------------+
| Database    | Table            | In_use | Name_locked |
+-------------+------------------+--------+-------------+
| Web_Members | ws_queue         |      0 |           0 |
+-------------+------------------+--------+-------------+

This seems to be an error, and was fixed by bouncing the server, something I do not like doing in the middle of a working day.

At the time Innodb status showed the following. Can any person help me understand what this is telling me?
