Updating taking long / config problem?

[ndwarshuis]

Can you post what headlines seem to be causing the problem? I've also never tested this on mac; I know there are a few problems in windows.

[plur9]

Sure. Here it is:

• TODO Task 1
• Inserted task
• TODO Task 2
  ** TODO Another task
• [#B] One more

Interesting to note is also that update in general doesn't work second time. For example:

• reset => OK
• update (4 records) => OK
• delete one heading
• update (3 records) => says OK but nothing changes in db

I can't reproduce this on my system but I'm using linux and I don't have a Mac to test this. It sounds like the SQL buffer is getting hung on a command that isn't completing. Two things:

1. Try deleting the *SQL: Org* buffer (and killing the process) after the hang and repeating the commands in the OP. Since you probably won't be able to do anything when org-sql is hung, Ctrl-G should kill the command and allow you to kill the buffer.
2. If 1 succeeds, go into the source code and run edebug-eval-top-level-form on the function org-sql-user-update right before running the command that hangs (this will run the debugger whenever org-sql-user-update is called). Run the hanging command and step through the function (press space repeatedly) and you will see output in the minibuffer as you evaluate each sexp. Post the output that shows up after stepping through (org-sql-update-db) (if it is normal it should be (nil nil nil) but I'm guessing it will have some error message in the place of one of the nils.)

To make 2 easier above, I just pushed a commit that will print the errors you are supposed to see if they exist and you follow the edebug steps. 58a2482 adds a debug option which can be enabled by running (setq org-sql-debug t). If necessary, please activate this and run your command sequence again instead of 2, and post the output here if it says anything besides "Run successfully" or "Not run".

Consider running .trace and .log statements in the SQL: Org buffer before executing org-sql-user-reset and org-sql-user-update. The .help command will give you more info on it.

That's what helped me to diagnose my issue

Awesome! Plan to give it a try asap when I get some time. Will report.
