Hi everyone, I am getting an error Error Type: OperationalError Error Value: (1205, 'Lock wait timeout exceeded; Try restarting transaction') i am trying to insert vaules into 2 tables (MYSQL). In the first table i make a new record and get the unique id for tht using THE MYSQL FUNCTION . but when it try to insert a record for the next table for which i am using this id....it gives an error. but when i try to give a static id for the second table....it is not giving any error. so i guess it is bcoz of transactions of zope... how to overcome this problem...any sugesstions are welcome!!!!!
