IdP3.2.1 Increase Logging for flow execution

[O'Dowd, Josh]

We are troubleshooting an unhandled exception:
org.springframework.webflow.conversation.impl.LockTimeoutException: Unable to acquire conversation lock after 30 seconds

We understand that the root issue is likely a resource dependency of the IdP and not the IdP itself.  We would like to leverage the IdP logging to help us identify which dependency might be the culprit.

It has been suggested that if there is a FlowExecutionListener wired in, to increase logging from that, for long requests, to include flow id, state id, and transition event.  I noticed that there is a bean wired in the IdP webflow-config called profileRequestContextFlowExecutionListener.  I am wondering if we can use that listener to add some logging directives when the error occurs?  Maybe I am out in left field with that idea but I thought I'd ask.

Does it make sense to try to use the listener?  Do you have any other helpful recommendations for drilling down on our issue?

Thanks.
