-My journal mode is set to WAL, synchronous mode is NORMAL and Checkpoint mode is Manual.
Transactions are written to the WAL file, therefore, even if the WAL file is lost, I should be able to retrieve the database without corruption.(sacrificing some data ofcourse) ? Moreover, I do know that there was no checkpoint in progress when the power was turned OFF. Hence syncs should not be a problem ? -Sreekumar On Mon, Jan 23, 2012 at 3:00 PM, Roger Binns <rog...@rogerbinns.com> wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > On 23/01/12 01:03, Sreekumar TP wrote: > > is it possible to find out if sqlite was in the middle of a transaction > > when the power off occurred ? > > WAL mode has the transactions in a separate file.
