ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified

I killed a script that was in the middle of updating a table. Now when I rerun the script I am gettin开发者_如何转开发g,

ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified

I presume the table is locked? How do I unlock the table?

Step 1:

select object_name, s.sid, s.serial#, p.spid 
from v$locked_object l, dba_objects o, v$session s, v$process p
where l.object_id = o.object_id and l.session_id = s.sid and s.paddr = p.addr;

Step 2:

alter system kill session 'sid,serial#'; --`sid` and `serial#` get from step 1

Thanks for the info user 'user712934'

You can also look up the sql,username,machine,port information and get to the actual process which holds the connection

SELECT O.OBJECT_NAME, S.SID, S.SERIAL#, P.SPID, S.PROGRAM,S.USERNAME,
S.MACHINE,S.PORT , S.LOGON_TIME,SQ.SQL_FULLTEXT 
FROM V$LOCKED_OBJECT L, DBA_OBJECTS O, V$SESSION S, 
V$PROCESS P, V$SQL SQ 
WHERE L.OBJECT_ID = O.OBJECT_ID 
AND L.SESSION_ID = S.SID AND S.PADDR = P.ADDR 
AND S.SQL_ADDRESS = SQ.ADDRESS;

You'll have to wait. The session that was killed was in the middle of a transaction and updated lots of records. These records have to be rollbacked and some background process is taking care of that. In the meantime you cannot modify the records that were touched.

When you killed the session, the session hangs around for a while in "KILLED" status while Oracle cleans up after it.

If you absolutely must, you can kill the OS process as well (look up v$process.spid), which would release any locks it was holding on to.

See this for more detailed info.

Depending on your situation, the table being locked may just be part of a normal operation & you don't want to just kill the blocking transaction. What you want to do is have your statement wait for the other resource. Oracle 11g has DDL timeouts which can be set to deal with this.

If you're dealing with 10g then you have to get more creative and write some PL/SQL to handle the re-try. Look at Getting around ORA-00054 in Oracle 10g This re-runs your statement when a resource_busy exception occurs.
