MySQL Error 3176: Modifying GTID_EXECUTED Table with XA

📋

Description

This error occurs when an attempt is made to modify the `mysql.gtid_executed` internal system table using an XA (eXtended Architecture) transaction. The `mysql.gtid_executed` table stores Global Transaction Identifiers (GTIDs) for committed transactions, crucial for replication consistency. Modifying it improperly, especially with XA transactions, can lead to an inconsistent GTID state.

💬

Error Message

Please do not modify the %s table with an XA transaction. This is an internal system table used to store GTIDs for committed transactions. Although modifying it can lead to an inconsistent GTID state, if necessary you can modify it with a non-XA transaction.
