Comment (by mmetz):
Replying to [ticket:3806 sbl]:
> db.copy fails to open a pg connection.
The pg connection needs to be registered first with db.login
>
> Tried syntax from the example as well as syntax as used in v.out.ogr.
>
> Might make sense to unify the way DB connection strings are handled in
different modules... As the pg driver usage in db.copyis inconsistent with
e.g. v.in.ogr or v.out.ogr.
v.[in|out].ogr use the OGR syntax which is different from the GRASS
syntax. In GRASS, you only need to specify the driver and the database
name, whereas in OGR you need to use a syntax like
"PG:"dbname='databasename' host='addr' port='5432' user='x' password='y'"
