What is MySQL 1152: Table cannot be locked.

Check which processes are currently running and locking the table:

SHOW PROCESSLIST;

Identify long-running transactions that might be causing the lock:

SELECT * FROM informationschema.innodbtrx ORDER BY trx_started;

Kill any specific process that is unnecessarily holding the lock and is safe to terminate. Replace `process_id` with the actual ID of the process you intend to kill:

KILL process_id;

Check for any open table locks:

SHOW OPEN TABLES WHERE In_use > 0;

If the issue persists, consider restarting the MySQL service to clear all locks (ensure this is acceptable in your environment as it will briefly disrupt database access):

sudo systemctl restart mysql
