📦 MariaDB
📋

Description

MariaDB Error 1020, 'Record has changed since last read', occurs when a transaction attempts to update a record that has been modified by another transaction after the current transaction initially read it. This indicates a concurrency conflict where the data your operation is based on is no longer current, preventing the update to maintain data integrity.

Known Causes

4 known causes
⚠️
Concurrent Data Modification
Another transaction successfully updated or deleted the target record after your transaction initially read it, invalidating your subsequent update attempt.
⚠️
Optimistic Locking Mismatch
If using optimistic locking, the version, timestamp, or checksum used for validation no longer matches the current state of the record, indicating a prior modification.
⚠️
Long-Running Transactions
Transactions that read data and then attempt to update it much later increase the likelihood of other transactions modifying the same data in the interim period.
⚠️
Application Logic Flaw
The application logic attempts to update stale data without re-reading the latest state immediately before the write operation, leading to conflicts in highly concurrent environments.
