Hi I am using sqlalchemy0.5.5 in my TG2 app with mysql(innodb) database My applicaton is multithreaded. there are multiple tasks that run at certain intervals. in one of my tables i am getting the following deadlock error. Deadlock found when trying to get lock; try restarting transaction
the query was failing while trying to delete in the following way. DBSession.query(Metrics).filter(Metrics.type_id==type_id).filter(Metrics.cdate <= date1).delete() so i changed the code to rows = DBSession.query(Metrics).filter(Metrics.type_id==type_id).filter(Metrics.cdate <= date1).all() for row in rows : DBSession.delete(row) assuming that it will scan less no:of rows while deleting. In this way i am no longer seeing the deadlock error. but if anybody can clarify that this is reliable enough or suggest any other options , that would be really helpful thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
