Do you really have a blank line between "COPY" and "5"? If so, that's your problem. 2. Are you perhaps copying+pasting from a Windows machine to a Linux one or similar? You might be getting "\r\n" at the end of lines when it's expecting "\n". The postgresql version is 7.4.17. Might want to set aside some time to upgrade in the near future - you're missing four full versions since 2003. At the very least, upgrade to 7.4.25 at your earliest convenience. -- Richard Huxton Archonet Ltd -- Sent via pgsql-sql mailing list ([email protected]) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-sql

Yes, the 5 and other text are at line 2 (a new line). I tried to put the whole command on the first line and execute it but I get same error: ERROR: syntax error at or near "1" LINE 1: COPY artikkel (id, tittel, tekst) FROM stdin 1 test test; No, the data needs to start on the line below COPY, but your first email had a blank line there. Your message had: Line 1: COPY artikkel (id, tittel, tekst) FROM stdin; Line 2: (blank) Line 3: 5 Slitasje og vedlikehold PRAKTISKE OPPLYSNINGER What you want is something like: COPY artikkel (id, tittel, tekst) FROM stdin; 1Title oneSome text 2Title twoSome text \. Where the marks are real tabs. I have also separated the 1 and the "test-text" with tab. Is the syntax for the line 1 correct? I have read some about using DELIMITER. Do you have a suggestion how a can use this in the command? 2. Yes I have opened the dump file on in a windows system and copy+paste it into the phppgadmin web interface. Hmm - reading the phppgadmin documentation, the FAQ says the following: "Only uploaded SQL scripts can contain COPY commands and for this to work, you must have PHP 4.2 or higher." So - it looks like you should save the COPY script to a text-file and upload it. I don't know how you do that, but it should be in the manual. -- Richard Huxton Archonet Ltd -- Sent via pgsql-sql mailing list ([email protected]) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-sql
Re: [SQL] Create table command fails with permission denied
Moderately curious. I wonder if 'cms' is on a different tablespace? Are there tables in that db? Btw, I don't have 7.4 so I'm only guessing based on 8.3 rjs Venkateswara Rao Bondada wrote: Hi Rob, I'm using postgres account (which is a superuser in the database) to create table.

It's got nothing to do with permissions inside the database --- there is something wrong with the filesystem permissions of the data directory. Or maybe you started the postmaster as the wrong user (not the one that owns the data directory). regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-sql mailing list ([email protected]) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-sql
