MySQL : can't rmdir './demo/' errno 17

Problem :
"can't rmdir './test/' errno 17"  
Error comes while dropping a database.

Reason :
For maintaining the data present in the databases MySQL maintains directory. These directories have same name as the database name. While executing the "drop database demo;" command for dropping the database if it's not able to delete it's directories then it throws the above exception

Solution :
This issue can be solved by manually deleting the database data related directory from the installed directory.

Where is the data directory present for MySQL database in windows ?
The default location of this directory would be :

C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\data

Inside data directory you will see folders present for all the databases, in my case it is 'demo' folder. Deleting this folder solves my problem.

Reasons: 1. You are actually referring to a wrong location of the JS file.    - This is a very common mistake done and most of the time we are so damn sure that we don't even care about checking the path once. Even though you have copied it from your existing project where it is working, if you face this issue don't forget to check the path once, it won't harm you. 2. Check for relative path.    - So now you have copied it and paste it in your new file where you are going to use the dhtmlx component and when you open your file you get this error and it becomes frustrating knowing that same thing is wo

How databasechangeloglock and databasechangelog table used by liquibase?

Liquibase takes care of executing the query on the database while maintaining the list of queries executed and also maintaining the locks over the tables simultaneously. The two tables that are used by the liquibase for this purpose are : Databasechangeloglock : This table have following columns ID | LOCKED| LOCKGRANTED | LOCKEDBY. This maintains the locks information granted to the user. The primary purpose of this table is to make sure that two machines don't attempt to modify the data at the same time. Databasechangelog : This table have following columns ID | AUTHOR | FILENAME | DATEEXECUTED | ORDEREXECUTED | EXECTYPE | MD5SUM | DESCRIPTION | COMMENTS | TAG | LIQUIBASE This table maintains the list of the statements that are executed on the database.
