reports deadlocking on WWV_FLOW_PREFERENCES$
Hi,
It may be coincidence, but since our upgrade to 3.0 we've had a steady rash of deadlocks in the alertlog on a couple of our very simple report pages. In every case that I've checked, the deadlock was with another session held by the same user. The offending sql reported by oracle is this:
UPDATE WWV_FLOW_PREFERENCES$ SET ATTRIBUTE_VALUE = :B5 WHERE USER_ID = NVL(:B4 ,NVL(:B3 ,USER)) AND PREFERENCE_NAME = :B2 AND SECURITY_GROUP_ID = :B1
I'm guessing this has to do with user picking a sort order. I don't see anything else on the page that could be user related.
Thanks for any suggestions.
