How It Affects Your App
MySQL 1428 ER_WRONG_LOCK_OF_SYSTEM_TABLE indicates that an application is attempting to lock a system table, which is not allowed. This can cause the application to fail, as it is not able to access the system table. It can also lead to data corruption, as the application is not able to access the system table in a safe manner. This can lead to data loss and other issues, as the application is not able to access the system table correctly.
How To Fix
1. Check the error log for the MySQL 1428 error:
$ tail -f /var/log/mysql/error.log
2. Check the MySQL configuration file for any misconfigurations:
$ cat /etc/mysql/my.cnf
3. Check the MySQL process list to see if any queries are running for an extended period of time:
$ mysqladmin -u root -p processlist
4. Check the MySQL status to see if there are any issues with the server:
$ mysqladmin -u root -p status
5. Check the MySQL variables to see if any of them are set incorrectly:
$ mysqladmin -u root -p variables
6. Check the MySQL user privileges to see if any of them are set incorrectly:
$ mysql -u root -p -e "SELECT * FROM mysql.user;"
7. Check the MySQL table structure to see if any of them are corrupted:
$ mysqlcheck -u root -p --all-databases
8. Check the MySQL query cache to see if any of the queries are taking too long to execute:
$ mysqladmin -u root -p flush-query-cache
9. Check the MySQL slow query log to see if any of the queries are taking too long to execute:
$ mysqladmin -u root -p slow-query-log
10. Check the MySQL replication status to see if any of the slaves are lagging behind:
$ mysqladmin -u root -p show-slave-status
11. Check the MySQL performance metrics to see if any of the metrics are out of range:
$ mysqladmin -u root -p extended-status
12. Check the MySQL system variables to see if any of them are set incorrectly:
$ mysqladmin -u root -p variables
13. Check the MySQL log files to see if any of them are corrupted:
$ mysqlbinlog -u root -p /var/log/mysql/mysql-bin.log
