Hello all:
We just recently upgraded to MediaWiki 1.8.2. We are running PHP - 5.1.1 and MySQL - 4.1.15.
MySQL generated the following error message yesterday:
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 "MediaWikiBagOStuff::_doquery". MySQL returned error "1213: Deadlock found when trying to get lock; try restarting transaction (localhost)".
Any ideas about what might be causing this error?
Thank you,
