Hi all,

customers are asking why the "executing a query" message on a SQL notebook is showed even if there's no query executing. And indeed it's a rather annoying message, even if not an anomaly.

Please, advice. Best Regards.

Giuseppe

    Hi @gnaldi62
    ,

    Would you mind attaching a screenshot of the full screen when the user sees the message you are referring to? I don't think i've quite been able to reproduce what you are describing so it would be helpful to take a look.

    Thank you,

    Hi @gnaldi62
    ,

    Thank you for attaching the screenshot!The unexpected “Executing a query” message in the UI for a SQL notebook is generally due to a crash occurring while DSS was writing a transaction to its runtime DB. There isn't a way to remove this message from an existing notebook at this time, so the best workaround is probably to create a new SQL notebook, copy the queries over from the notebook that shows the message, and then delete the original notebook.

    If you ever see this re-occur in the future, you can certainly open a ticket with us and attach an instance diagnostic so that we can help determine the exact root cause.

    Thank you,
    Sarina
