Hello gurus,

I got this error and I want to confirm my concepts are right.

Session 1

delete from tab1 where col1=20;
0 rows deleted

session2
truncate table tab1;
I get "ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified"

When session1 deleted 0 records, it should not be placing any locks on the table correct? I do not understand why I got the error. Am I missing some basic concept?

When I did a rollback on the session1 then session2 was able to truncate the table.

Thanks
Deen
