Deleting custom fields = "System contention too high"
I was deleting some custom fields and received two error messages, one on which is very scary:
OMG! - that can't be good...Duplicate custom field db info
Then this:
System contention too high to complete operation. Please try again during off-peak hours.
Did I mention it's 3:04am? I mean... how much MORE off-peak could I be??
This thread sounds like almost the exact same thing. Anyone know about this? I already opened a case, but I'm asking here in case this is SUPER serious then I can push hard to get it escalated.
