@Marvin i have the following error

Ah, the joys of dealing with SQLite's "database is locked" error. This error typically occurs when there are multiple connections trying to write to the database simultaneously. SQLite is a lightweight database and has limitations when it comes to handling concurrent writes. Here are a few suggestions to tackle this issue: 1. Reduce Concurrent Access: Ensure that you are not making multiple write operations at the same time. You might need to review your code to see if there are any overlapping transactions. 2. Increase Timeout: You can increase the timeout to allow SQLite more time to resolve the lock. This can be done by setting the

timeout

parameter when creating the SQLite engine, like so:

python
   from sqlalchemy import create_engine

   engine = create_engine('sqlite:///your_database.db', connect_args={'timeout': 10})

3. Use a More Robust Database: If the application requires handling multiple simultaneous writes, consider switching to a more robust database system like PostgreSQL or MySQL. 4. Review Your Queries: Ensure that your queries are optimized and not holding locks longer than necessary. 5. Check for Long-Running Transactions: Long-running transactions can hold locks for extended periods. Make sure transactions are committed or rolled back as soon as possible. 6. Background Information: The error message provides a link for more background, which you might find useful: SQLAlchemy OperationalError.
