Any ideas? I think I have identified the offending RULE that was newly
created on the table. It may have missed the WHERE condition.

But even if CREATE OR REPLACE this rule, the command doesn't go
through. So I'm stuck in a vicious loop.

How can I get rid of all open locks? When I go through pg_locks there
are about 1041 of them right now. I am looking for a mechanism of
deleting them all (can I just delete all rows in pg_locks?) instead of
manually going through 1041 on a live database.

Thanks!
