Flamenco Version
Is Broken: 3.5 and older 3.x releases
Worked OK: never

Short description of error
When the Flamenco process is running for long enough, it seems that GORM can close the sqlite connection and create a new one by itself. Since that then doesn't execute the PRAGMA SQL commands to enable foreign key constraints, these constraints are disabled on this new connection. The result is that deleting a job will not delete its tasks, and same for other deletion operations.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
This is hard to reproduce, as it includes (for me) unknown GORM behaviour.

  1. Run Flamenco Manager for long enough.
  2. Delete a job.

Solution
Replace GORM with something that either provides an on-connect callback function, or doesn't reconnect by itself. Work is already underway to replace GORM with sqlc in #104304.

Note that there are already some guards in place, that refuse to delete jobs / workers / tags when foreign key constraints are disabled.
