I'm running a flow using SQLITE DB. It is simple et efficient enough.

When I start a long query on the database from an external program,

_Like:( select count (_) from MESSAGES where sent = 0;)\*

I have an error when node red flow tries to access the DB.

_20/08/2024 09:32:56[node: DB Commit Send](http://10.173.2.182:1880/#)msg : error_

- "Error: SQLITE\_BUSY: database is locked"\*

The error is inherent to the way sqlite has been implemented and it is not an issue.

**The issue is that that error is not caught by a CATCH node properly setup.**

Did someone had same kind of issue ?

Thanks for any idea

Guy
