CASHBOXID is already know. It is a reference to a table that we don't touch in 
the transaction. 

This table contains the current total amount of a cash box at the begging of 
the day.

So when I try to load data for a cash box a java code checks is there record 
for this cash box for current day. If there is no such record it calculates the 
total current amount and calls the insert that adds a record to this table. 

Usually inserting record with same value for primary key will create error and 
probably will not  block the execution of the statement.

User is sysdba. There is no security restrictions for access to database.

End users have no access to database server at all. They all use code that runs 
in application server to access or modify data. That is why I'm not restricting 
the access to the database for the moment.

I'm not sure it is a lock conflict. But I suspect that something is locked 
somewhere and that forces the execution of the statement to stop and to lock 
all other inserts that other connections try to execute.

As I said I need ideas or hints what to do in order to find the real problem 
when this situation happens again.

One more thing. When I try to stop application server when this happens all 
connections that are blocked including the initial one stop the shutdown of the 
server. 

When I try to kill firebird process that initially blocked the execution all 
other processes are unlocked and server is shutdown after that. 

But in this case I try guess which process is that. When I look in the 
monitoring tables I can't see the pid of the process of each statement.
