Sorry, this is not true. I did more thorough testing today. I did experiments on one test ticket and as the history of ticket grows, the probability of the bug increases. Now it is almost certain the problem will occurs. Isolation level 'serializable' behaves like 'repeatable read'. So the summary is: === 'commited read': -> deadlock, application outputs error: Comments added Could not change owner: Could not update column Owner: Owner could not be set to 102.

[rt-users] Postgresql default isolation level (was Re: mysql DB engine ndbdcluster)

I afraid you are right, Postgreses default isolation level is 'read committed'. I filled bug-report two months ago. https://issues.bestpractical.com/Ticket/Display.html?id=32381 I'm running PostgreSQL & RT on Debian Jessie, that is Pg 9.4 & RT 4.4.1. I did only a basic PostgreSQL performance tuning, but didn't change the default transaction isolation level. I can't find anything about needed transaction isolation level through RT documentation. I read this fact, that RT assumes "repeatable-read" isolation level for the first time. Nevertheless we are hit only by the problem during Comment/Correspond together with ticket owner change only (I hope). I did some testing right now on testing RT instance: * default "committed read" isolation level - I'm getting from time to time: 2016-12-21 11:33:38 CET [22545-1] rt_rt@rt ERROR: deadlock detected 2016-12-21 11:33:38 CET [22545-2] rt_rt@rt DETAIL: Process 22545 waits for ShareLock on transaction 8351856; blocked by process 22539.
