C API hangs in mysql_query()
I have this very strange issue and I cannot reproduce it - it occurs once in ~12 hours only for this table:
CREATE TABLE `ReferenceWaves` (
`ReferenceWave` datetime NOT NULL COMMENT 'DateTime of the Reference Wave',
`InstrumentId` int(11) NOT NULL,
`Triggered` datetime DEFAULT NULL COMMENT 'When it was triggered'
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COMMENT='Assures FAFWE doesn''t use this reference wave when restarted';
ALTER TABLE `ReferenceWaves`
ADD UNIQUE KEY `ReferenceWave` (`ReferenceWave`,`InstrumentId`);
Then running this command
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM MyISAM_ElliottWavesCore.ReferenceWaves
WHERE ReferenceWave = '2018-04-02 17:06:00' AND InstrumentId = 73
does not return from the mysql_query() C function. This occurs more or less once in 12 hours - in the meantime around 10'000 queries like this have been executed without any problem.
Running SELECT * FROM information_schema.PROCESSLIST WHERE ID=6981; - where ID is the thread id for the query - returns this:
ID USER HOST DB COMMAND TIME STATE INFO
6981 FAEWE aaeb-app206ly.aaeb-holding.local:52492 (null) Sleep 1836 (null)
After around 5 hours this thread apparently is killed automatically by MySQL and not visible anymore in the information_schema.PROCESSLIST.
The table MyISAM_ElliottWavesCore.ReferenceWaves has ~4'800 rows and the total size - including the index - is <150KB. I have tables which have million of rows and have size > 1GB but there is never this issue - it is only in this table and very unpredictable. You can imagine how frustrating it is.
Any idea what is going wrong?
Technical data:
- SLES 12.3 running on XenServer 7.4 as VM
- compiled with
gcc7.3 using-std=c++17and almost every warning option. - using
glibc2.27 which is separately linked into the project because SLES 12.3 uses 2.22 - MySql Community Server 5.7.21
- C API client 5.7.19

No idea, but I wouldn't "select count(*)" where only one row can be returned, I wouldn't pass a string when selecting a datetime, but I would mention what version of MySQL we're dealing with, on which OS, and which client is issuing the query, and how exactly.

@GerardH.Pille I updated the question. Why wouldn't you useCOUNT(*)when only one row can be returned? The advantage is that there is always a result set returned. And honestly, this must not be any problem for a database server in year 2018.

Are you doing a backup every 12 hours? MyISAM is blocked when dump, ALTER, OPTIMIZE, and several other operations are done.
Switch to InnoDB to eliminate most of such locks.
You can probably see the offending SQL by getting a full SHOW PROCESSLIST;.

For the moment I cannot reproduce this issue. I changed the engine - as you suggested - to InnoDB - it worked for 300k iterations. Then, I changed it back to MyISAM and it also works.
