Hello
I have a problem that it seems to be very hard to debug.
Problem is from some postgresql locks. I use PostgreSQL 9.1.8.
I runned this query to fid the locks:
SELECT bl.pid AS blocked_pid, a.usename AS blocked_user, kl.pid AS
blocking_pid, ka.usename AS blocking_user, a.current_query AS
blocked_statement FROM pg_catalog.pg_locks bl JOIN
pg_catalog.pg_stat_activity a ON a.procpid = bl.pid JOIN
pg_catalog.pg_locks kl ON kl.transactionid = bl.transactionid AND kl.pid
!= bl.pid JOIN pg_catalog.pg_stat_activity ka ON ka.procpid = kl.pid
WHERENOT bl.granted;
The result is a recursive lock.
Pid 10665 is blocked by pid 9844 and pid 9844 is blocked by 10665.
These 2 inserts are in 2 separate transactions.
Can this be a postgresql bug?

I never use LOCK command in my application.
All locks are made by postgresql.
I use transactional support a lot.
Can someoane give some advice about how can I prevent this locking?
Thank you.
