Database Error

[Alex.]

A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:

(SQL query hidden)

from within function "LocalFile::upgradeRow". Database returned error "1205: Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting transaction (localhost)".

Also, can we have a captcha for registration please?

[Alex.]

So nobody else is having this issue?

Edit: It also happens on Special:UnusedFiles.

[Taneru]

I had it once last night, but it didn't reoccur, so I assumed it was a fluke at the time.
EDIT: I was going through Special:UnusedFiles at the time.

No problems to me so far.

Will report if it happens.

Continues to happen whenever I try to view any section of Special:UnusedFiles that contains the range of files #621 to #654. Still trying to narrow down the exact file number.

EDIT: The following files continually return the error:

#621
#630
#644
#653
If someone makes any changes that remove any of the files before these ones from the Special:UnusedFiles category, the links won't point to the proper files, but since I can't find out the exact names of the files in question, I can't give a more reliable link.

Turns out it was a problem with my preferences. They were set to show 1,000 edits.

[Taneru]

Are the default preferences set to that?, because I get the error regardless of whether I'm logged in or not.

Ye I'm getting it as well.

Alley was right.

No, definitely not.
