How It Affects Your App
This error indicates that a transaction is already in progress, and that the BINLOG_FORMAT cannot be changed until the transaction is completed. This can have a significant impact on the application, as it prevents the user from changing the BINLOG_FORMAT until the transaction is finished. This can lead to delays in the application, as the user must wait for the transaction to complete before they can make the desired changes. Additionally, this can lead to confusion for the user, as they may not be aware of the transaction that is preventing them from making the desired changes.
