前言：朋友咨询我说执行简单的update语句失效，症状如下：
mysql> update order_info set province_id=15 ,city_id= 1667 where order_from=10 and order_out_sn='1407261241xxxx';
ERROR 1205 (HY000): Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting transaction
mysql>
QQ远程过去，开始check
1，查看数据库的隔离级别：
mysql> select @@tx_isolation;
+-----------------+
| @@tx_isolation |
+-----------------+
| REPEATABLE-READ |
+-----------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql>
2，去查看先当前库的线程情况：
mysql> show full processlist;
+----------+-----------------+-------------------+-----------------+-------------+---------+-------------------------+-----------------------+
| Id | User | Host | db | Command | Time | State | Info |
+----------+-----------------+-------------------+-----------------+-------------+---------+-------------------------+-----------------------+
| 1 | event_scheduler | localhost | NULL | Daemon | 9635385 | Waiting on empty queue | NULL |
| 9930577 | business_web | 192.168.1.21:45503 | business_db | Sleep | 153 | | NULL |
| 9945825 | business_web | 192.168.1.25:49518 | business_db | Sleep | 43 | | NULL |
| 9946322 | business_web | 192.168.1.23:44721 | business_db | Sleep | 153 | | NULL |
| 9960167 | business_web | 192.168.3.28:2409 | business_db | Sleep | 93 | | NULL |
| 9964484 | business_web | 192.168.1.21:24280 | business_db | Sleep | 7 | | NULL |
| 9972499 | business_web | 192.168.3.28:35752 | business_db | Sleep | 13 | | NULL |
| 10000117 | business_web | 192.168.3.28:9149 | business_db | Sleep | 6 | | NULL |
| 10002523 | business_web | 192.168.3.29:42872 | business_db | Sleep | 6 | | NULL |
| 10007545 | business_web | 192.168.1.21:51379 | business_db | Sleep | 155 | | NULL |
......
+----------+-----------------+-------------------+-----------------+-------------+---------+-------------------------+-----------------------+
没有看到正在执行的慢SQL记录线程，再去查看innodb的事务表INNODB_TRX，看下里面是否有正在锁定的事务线程，看看ID是否在show full processlist里面的sleep线程中，如果是，就证明这个sleep的线程事务一直没有commit或者rollback而是卡住了，我们需要手动kill掉。
mysql> SELECT * FROM information_schema.INNODB_TRX\G;
*************************** 1. row ***************************
trx_id: 20866
trx_state: LOCK WAIT
trx_started: 2014-07-31 10:42:35

trx_adaptive_hash_latched: 0
trx_adaptive_hash_timeout: 10000
trx_is_read_only: 0
trx_autocommit_non_locking: 0
3，看到有这条9930577的sql，kill掉，执行kill 9930577;
mysql> kill 9930577;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql>
然后再去查询INNODB_TRX表，就没有阻塞的事务sleep线程存在了，如下所示：
mysql> SELECT * FROM INNODB_TRX\G;
Empty set (0.00 sec)
ERROR:
No query specified
mysql>
再去执行update语句，就能正常执行了，如下所示：
mysql> update order_info set province_id=15 ,city_id= 1667 where order_from=10 and order_out_sn='1407261241xxxx';
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Rows matched: 1 Changed: 1 Warnings: 0
mysql>
4，总结分析
表数据量也不大，按照普通的情况来说，简单的update应该不会造成阻塞的，mysql都是autocommit，不会出现update卡住的情况，去查看下autocommit的值。
mysql> select @@autocommit;
+--------------+
| @@autocommit |
+--------------+
| 0 |
+--------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql>
看到亮闪闪的0，这个设置导致原来的update语句如果没有commit的话，你再重新执行update语句，就会等待锁定，当等待时间过长的时候，就会报ERROR 1205 (HY000): Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting transaction的错误。
所以赶紧commit刚才执行的update语句，之后 set global autocommit=1;
