Python SQLite: database is locked

Question

I\'m trying this code:

import sqlite

connection = sqlite.connect(\'cache.db\')
cur = connection.cursor()
cur.execute(\'\'\'create table item
  (id integer p         


        

Answer 1

in my case ,the error happened when a lot of concurrent process trying to read/write to the same table. I used retry to workaround the issue

def _retry_if_exception(exception):
    return isinstance(exception, Exception)

@retry(retry_on_exception=_retry_if_exception,
       wait_random_min=1000,
       wait_random_max=5000,
       stop_max_attempt_number=5)
def execute(cmd, commit=True):
   c.execute(cmd)
   c.conn.commit()
