Postgres 9.1 in Ubuntu Distribution (12.04 LTS). When I try to use the shp2pgsql after the pg_wrapper error said that I don't have that function, so I enable that function with this command:
sudo ln -sf /usr/share/postgresql-common/pg_wrapper /usr/local/bin/shp2pgsql then I try to import again with the same expression that I used before: shp2pgsql /home/user/Downloads/Africa_Boundaries/africa.shp teste2.africa | psql -d MyDatabase And I have the pg_wrapper error (Error: pg_wrapper: invalid command name) Many thanks José Santos > Date: Fri, 26 Oct 2012 06:24:18 -0700 > From: adrian.kla...@gmail.com > To: zpsant...@hotmail.com > CC: pgsql-general@postgresql.org > Subject: Re: [GENERAL] pg_wrapper error > > On 10/26/2012 06:16 AM, José Pedro Santos wrote: > > Dear all, > > > > When I try to use the command line tool shp2pgsql in the shell I have > > this error: > > > > *Error: pg_wrapper: invalid command name* > > > > I already read some information in the Debian lists but I don't > > understand the problem/relation with PostgreSQL. > > > > If anyone can help me with this problem please tell me. > > More information is needed. > > What version of Postgres? > > What OS and version? > > How are you using shp2pgsql? > In other words show command line. > > Where is the above error showing up? > > > > > Many thanks > > José Santos > > > -- > Adrian Klaver > adrian.kla...@gmail.com
