Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description David Tonhofer 2011-09-15 15:27:30 UTC
Description of problem:
-----------------------

Moving from RH5 (mysql-server-5.0.77-4.el5_5.5) to RH6 (mysql-server-5.1.52-1.el6_0.1.x86_64), mysql-server exhibits a new failure mode (with the InnoDB engine, autocommitting statements, from JDBC)

From time to time, one gets a statement failure 

"Table 't' was not locked with LOCK TABLES"

which does not make sense front, back and center as the table in question is clearly not to be meant to be locked with LOCK TABLES.

Similar problems found on net:

http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=13769
http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=29929

This problem was not found on 5.0.77 even for months of operation.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
-----------------------

mysql-server-5.1.52-1.el6_0.1.x86_64

How reproducible:
-----------------------

Every few hours on a MySQL database under load.

No further information as of yet.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-09-15 15:47:59 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to
address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to
ask your support representative to propose this request, if
appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an
exception in the current release, please ask your support
representative.

Comment 3 Tom Lane 2011-09-15 16:06:03 UTC
Without a reproducible test case (preferably, more reproducible than "every few hours") there is absolutely nothing I can do with this report.

Comment 4 David Tonhofer 2011-09-15 16:15:22 UTC
I know.

Unfortunately I do not have access to the magic test case generator.

Will append more if I know more.

Comment 5 Tom Lane 2011-09-15 19:59:20 UTC
Well, it's premature to file a bug when you don't have adequate evidence.  Please either reopen or file a new bug when you do.
