This experiment demonstrates that LOCK TABLES does not work for me.

My question is”Why?”


The better question to ask is why are you trying to lock tables? There’s
usually a number of better ways to achieve something that can be solved
using table locking. What’s the actual operation you’re doing, or is it a
purely academic question?


Also, based on your restatement of the problem it would suggest you run the
two scripts in sequence, not in parallel. If that’s the case then the
answer is clear: when a session is terminated (i.e. you disconnect from the
database whether explicitly, or due to an error, or because the script
ends) all locks obtained by that session are released.
