I think the error messages are distinct enough as is.
SQLITE_BUSY means that some connection is BUSY with a write transaction and has
locked the database file; presumably, it will be possible to write to the
database when the current writer has finished, just not now or within the
specified busy timeout.
SQLITE_LOCKED otoh means that the calling application is in error and has
specified two or more transactions whose table access modes are incompatible
and whose table access orders differ. This situation is resolvable only if at
least one involved transaction is rolled back.
const char *sqlite3ErrStr(int rc){
static const char* const aMsg[] = {
...
/* SQLITE_BUSY */ "database is locked",
/* SQLITE_LOCKED */ "database table is locked",
...
};

Betreff: [sqlite] "database is locked" for SQLITE_BUSY
Hi,
Just a quick request/suggestion.
Currently SQLITE_BUSY events return an error of "Database is locked". Is it
possible to change this to "Database is busy" or something similar?
I ask because when someone then goes googling for "SQLite database locked",
they'll end up thinking they're hitting the SQLITE_LOCKED event which as best I
can tell is very different to the SQLITE_BUSY event.
I'm sure I can't be the only person who has been tripped up by that one.
Thanks,
Jonathan
