probably, you had a transaction sitting around that is not closed (to
see: select * from pg_stat_activity).

the alter table is waiting for that transaction to finish, but itself
blocks all _new_ transactions (alter table acquires a strong lock on
the table).   Cancel the alter table query or the query that is
blocking your alter table.  Again, check pg_stat_activity and
ungranted locks (select * from pg_locks where granted = false).

By querying these tables I found that the connection pooling was not setup properly and that there were few unclosed sessions hanging around. Thank you for your help.

Regards,
Marco.
