You have not shown us the full sequence of events leading up to the deadlock failure, but I hypothesize that there were yet other transactions that updated that same row in the very recent past. That might allow there to be more than one tuple lock involved (ie, locks on different versions of the row), which would create some scope for a deadlock failure. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
