Hello,

Can anyboday explain to me what's the difference between
Timeout error and Deaklock?

Thanks in advance

A timeout error occurs when a sql procedure, query, update etc. runs longer than its query timeout period.

A deadlock occures when two process interact as follows.

Process 1 has locked table A and needs table B
Process 2 has locked table B and needs table A

Since neither process can complete without the other giving up the lock it already has, you have a deadlock.
