我刚才在远程服务器上使用存储在NFS挂载上的SQLite数据库时遇到了这个问题。当我使用的远程shell会话在数据库打开时崩溃后，SQLite无法获得锁。

上面建议的恢复方法对我不起作用(包括先移动然后再复制数据库的想法)。但是在将其复制到非nfs系统后，数据库变得可用，数据似乎没有丢失。

我的锁是由系统崩溃引起的，而不是由挂起进程引起的。为了解决这个问题，我简单地重命名了文件，然后将其复制回原来的名称和位置。

使用Linux shell将是:

mv mydata.db temp.db
cp temp.db mydata.db

如果你想删除一个“database is locked”错误，请按照以下步骤执行:

将数据库文件复制到其他位置。 用复制的数据库替换数据库。这将解除对访问数据库文件的所有进程的引用。

我添加了“池=true”连接字符串，它工作。

我在应用程序中有这样的问题，从2个连接访问SQLite -一个是只读的，第二个用于写入和读取。看起来这个只读连接阻止了第二个连接的写入。最后，需要在使用后立即完成或至少重置准备好的语句。直到准备语句被打开，导致数据库写入被阻塞。

别忘了打电话:

sqlite_reset(xxx);

or

sqlite_finalize(xxx);

删除-journal文件听起来是个糟糕的主意。它允许sqlite在崩溃后将数据库回滚到一致的状态。如果在数据库处于不一致状态时删除它，则会留下一个损坏的数据库。引用sqlite站点的一个页面:

If a crash or power loss does occur and a hot journal is left on the disk, it is essential that the original database file and the hot journal remain on disk with their original names until the database file is opened by another SQLite process and rolled back. [...] We suspect that a common failure mode for SQLite recovery happens like this: A power failure occurs. After power is restored, a well-meaning user or system administrator begins looking around on the disk for damage. They see their database file named "important.data". This file is perhaps familiar to them. But after the crash, there is also a hot journal named "important.data-journal". The user then deletes the hot journal, thinking that they are helping to cleanup the system. We know of no way to prevent this other than user education.

The rollback is supposed to happen automatically the next time the database is opened, but it will fail if the process can't lock the database. As others have said, one possible reason for this is that another process currently has it open. Another possibility is a stale NFS lock, if the database is on an NFS volume. In that case, a workaround is to replace the database file with a fresh copy that isn't locked on the NFS server (mv database.db original.db; cp original.db database.db). Note that the sqlite FAQ recommends caution regarding concurrent access to databases on NFS volumes, because of buggy implementations of NFS file locking.

我无法解释为什么删除一个-journal文件会让你锁定一个数据库，而你以前不能。这是可复制的吗?

顺便说一下，-journal文件的存在并不一定意味着发生了崩溃或有要回滚的更改。Sqlite有几种不同的日志模式，在PERSIST或TRUNCATE模式下，它始终保留-journal文件，并更改内容以指示是否有要回滚的部分事务。
