Can you reproduce the problem?
The code does look a bit weird, /* * Get the COPY data */ res = PQgetResult(conn); if (PQresultStatus(res) != PGRES_COPY_OUT) { fprintf(stderr, _("%s: could not get COPY data stream: %s"), progname, PQerrorMessage(conn)); Note that noplace we check that there is actually an error. So maybe the conn got a result status other than COPY_OUT that's not an error ... -- Álvaro Herrera https://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
