The error is the actual MySQL error, so yes it's definitely a lock timeout.

This means two different queries were trying to access the same data at the same time. Normally one'll wait until the other is finished, but if it waits too long you get the lock timeout error.

It can be caused by a query taking too long, or a transaction modifying the data but then taking too long before commit. To avoid that make sure MySQL is tuned correctly. Good indexes on the tables and good sizes for the cache buffers.

Make sure you're using a proper index for the delete operation, I'd also avoid ORs if possible.

The query is part of mod_sofia, so isn't modifiable. Having a KEY(hostname,expires) on sip_dialogs may help though if it doesn't already exist (check with SHOW CREATE TABLE sip_dialogs).

Avoid accessing sip_dialogs from any of your own code to minimise the number of things that might block each other.

Hi,

I got the following error

2013-07-15 21:47:41.061450 [ERR] switch_odbc.c:514 ERR: [delete from sip_dialogs where (expires = -1 or (expires > 0 and expires <= 1373939087)) and hostname='mydomain.com']
[STATE: HY000 CODE 1205 ERROR: [unixODBC][MySQL][ODBC 5.1 Driver][mysqld-5.5.32]Lock wait timeout exceeded; try restarting transaction]

and the odbcinst.ini

This is a mysql memory leak? How can fix this error?
