I have a user who has a locked database. I don't know why the db is locked but suspect either he killed the program when it was adding an index or my program crashed (he was using a beta version). Irrespective of wghich he has a db that is locked and I'd like to unlock it.
My database would normally only ever be read by a single instance of my program and after the database has been created and the user starts to interact with it the updates are generally quite minimal The db is over a GB in size and I believe that I can use an sqlite backup to create a new unlocked copy but this is a bit slow and cumbersome. Is there a faster method for clearing a lock? Is there some method to ensure that if the indexing process is interrupted that sqlite rolls back - I have jounalling on and journal mode is set to delete. Thanks. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
