How It Affects Your App
The error 1208 ER_DROP_DB_WITH_READ_LOCK prevents the application from dropping a database while a read lock is active. This can cause the application to become unresponsive and unable to perform any database operations until the read lock is released. This can lead to a disruption in the application's normal operations, as well as a decrease in user experience. Additionally, the application may be unable to access any data stored in the database until the read lock is released.
