You are assuming that the problem is that there is a lock conflict.
This is not the case; you'd not get an error message (unless the command
had specified NOWAIT).

The problem here seems to be that you are trying to dump a schema or
table that the dumping user has no access to.  You may either grant
those permissions, or create the dump with another user.
