MariaDB Error 1197: Transaction Cache Exceeded
Description
This error occurs when a multi-statement transaction attempts to write more data to the binary log cache than the 'max_binlog_cache_size' variable allows. MariaDB uses this cache to temporarily store transaction events before they are written to the binary log file, which is vital for replication and point-in-time recovery. It indicates that the current transaction is too large for the configured cache limit.
Error Message
Multi-statement transaction required more than 'max_binlog_cache_size' bytes of storage; increase this mysqld variable and try again
Known Causes
3 known causesExecuting Large Transactions
Transactions involving numerous SQL statements or processing a significant amount of data can quickly consume the available binlog cache.
Insufficient `max_binlog_cache_size`
The configured `max_binlog_cache_size` variable in MariaDB is set too low to accommodate the demands of current application transactions.
Rapid Data Growth
An unexpected or rapid increase in the volume of data being processed by the database can lead to transactions exceeding the binlog cache limit.
