Look in the postgresql logs. It should give you more info on what queries were running in each session that conflicted with each other. If you didn't have the PID as part of your log_line_prefix, that can make it a bit more challenging to figure out which sessions were which, though. I've found this prefix to be very useful (note there is a space at the end):
"%t [%r] [%p]: [%l-1] user=%u,db=%d,e=%e "
9.2 should give you enough info, but I believe more recent versions are much more verbose with their deadlock output to help with debugging.
"%t [%r] [%p]: [%l-1] user=%u,db=%d,e=%e "
9.2 should give you enough info, but I believe more recent versions are much more verbose with their deadlock output to help with debugging.
