Hello,

One of our clients running our LMS on top of PostgreSQL 13.1 created a
ticket with these messages:

2023-09-30 16:50:50.951 CEST [18117] ERROR: deadlock detected
2023-09-30 16:50:50.951 CEST [18117] DETAIL: Process 18117 waits for ShareLock on transaction 150396154; blocked by process 18187.

2023-09-30 16:50:50.951 CEST [18117] STATEMENT: fetch hc_d03geb

The shown PIDs for sure are the ones of the Pos backend proc (on Linux).
Is there any chance to investigate it further?

Thanks

matthias
