Thanks for the link. I was following this -
http://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/19679/how-to-set-postgresql-database-to-see-date-as-mdy-permanently. This
actuallylead me to those combinations
that I had already tried.
Now I have another problem:
prac_db=# SET datestyle = "SQL, DMY";
SET
prac_db=# copy orders from '/home/arup/postgresql/order.csv' with CSV
DELIMITER ',' HEADER ;
ERROR: time zone displacement out of range: " 9-25 AM"
CONTEXT: COPY orders, line 2, column delivery_time: " 9-25 AM"
prac_db=#
=======
ERROR: time zone displacement out of range: " 9-25 AM"

How to fix this ?
prac_db=# \d orders ;
Table "public.orders"
Column | Type | Modifiers
------------------+------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------
order_id | integer | not null default
nextval('orders_order_id_seq'::regclass)
delivery_address | text |
order_date | date |
delivery_date | date |
status | text |
delivery_time | time without time zone |
courier_id | integer |
Indexes:
"orders_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (order_id)
\d: extra argument ";" ignored
prac_db=#

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore,
if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not
smart enough to debug it.
