Hi all,

I'm occasionally seeing a lock timeout in a commit statement. For example:

2025-07-10 08:56:07.225 UTC,"b2bc_api","b2bcreditonline",23592,"10.124.230.241:60648",686f8022.5c28,55,"COMMIT",2025-07-10 08:56:02 UTC,3984/10729,676737574,ERROR,55P03,"canceling statement due to lock timeout",,,,,,"COMMIT",,,"098c62f7-bb76-4607-88da-120c6edee423","client backend",,-2835399305386018931

Am I right in thinking this is likely due to a deferred foreign key constraint? I couldn't see any obvious clue in the log. Is there somewhere else I can look?

In case it matters, the server is running version 17.4.

Thanks,

Steve
