DML Operation Errors

Table Already Has Running Job Error

When executing DML statements like SET, DELETE, and INSERT INTO, you may encounter one of the following error messages:

  • StartTableWriteTransaction() failed, Table: <table_name> already has a running job, got TableAlreadyHasRunningJobException:
  • SubmitJob() failed, this table already has a running job, should submit job after current job finished.

What This Means

These errors occur when Flavius is already processing another operation on the same table. The database ensures data consistency by allowing only one write operation per table at a time.

Solution

Don’t panic! This is a normal behavior to maintain data integrity. Simply:

  1. Wait a moment - The current operation will complete shortly
  2. Retry your statement - Execute the same DML statement again after a brief pause
