Hello,

I am trying to add a column to a table but it's not working,

What version of postgres?
What was the error message?


I have also tried reindex and drop on the same table but those commands are also getting stuck.

Below is the table structure and lock details

On this table normal vacuum is working but when I tried for VACUUM FULL it was not working, I have tried to take pg_dump in case there's any corruption, pg_dump is working fine.


Thanks
