From dispatch_command() in sql_parse.cc net_end_statement() is called after ha_autocommit_or_rollback() but before close_thread_tables(). What can go wrong in the call to close_thread_tables() after the response to the client? Commit or rollback was done before a response was sent to the client.

/* If commit fails, we should be able to reset the OK status. */ thd->main_da.can_overwrite_status= TRUE; ha_autocommit_or_rollback(thd, thd->is_error()); thd->main_da.can_overwrite_status= FALSE; thd->transaction.stmt.reset(); net_end_statement(thd); query_cache_end_of_result(thd); thd->proc_info= "closing tables"; /* Free tables */ close_thread_tables(thd); -- Mark Callaghan mdcallag@gmail.com
