Hello,
I'm running Postgres 9.0.2 on RHEL 5.6 x86_64 and trying to run the following statement:
alter table samples add column in_esp1234 text;
When I do this the command just hangs. ps output indicates that it's waiting:
postgres: postgres exomeSNP [local] ALTER TABLE waiting
When I look to see what might have that table locked I don't see anything:
select * from pg_locks where relation=(select oid from pg_class where relname='samples');
I have a nearly identical server where this command works. It seems like something has this table locked, but I haven't been able to find it. Any ideas?
Please find more information using below query:
\x
SELECT
waiting.locktype AS waiting_locktype,
waiting.relation::regclass AS waiting_table,
waiting_stm.current_query AS waiting_query,
waiting.mode AS waiting_mode,
waiting.pid AS waiting_pid,
other.locktype AS other_locktype,
other.relation::regclass AS other_table,
other_stm.current_query AS other_query,
other.mode AS other_mode,
other.pid AS other_pid,
other.granted AS other_granted
FROM
pg_catalog.pg_locks AS waiting
JOIN
pg_catalog.pg_stat_activity AS waiting_stm
ON (
waiting_stm.procpid = waiting.pid
)
JOIN
pg_catalog.pg_locks AS other
ON (
(
waiting."database" = other."database"
AND waiting.relation = other.relation
)
OR waiting.transactionid = other.transactionid
)
JOIN
pg_catalog.pg_stat_activity AS other_stm
ON (
other_stm.procpid = other.pid
)
WHERE
NOT waiting.granted
AND
waiting.pid <> other.pid;
