Getting [SQLITE_BUSY] database file is locked with select statements

Question

If I run multiple threads against my web app I get:

java.sql.SQLException: [SQLITE_BUSY]  The database file is locked (database is locked)
    at org.sqlite.         


        

Answer 1

After some googling I found that it is a bad practice to use multiple connections when connecting to SQLite. See
